The Wringer

Yes I been through the ringer
I played hard and I paid the price
Yes I been through the ringer
I played hard and I paid the price
But I'd do it all again
Don't gotta think about it twice

Well I once was young and pretty
I didn't even have a clue
Once was young and kinda pretty
I didn't even have a clue
You think that nothing can hurt you
And all the world belongs to you

Well the teeth of time, people
They chewed me up and spit me out
Yes the teeth of time, people
They chewed me up and spit me out
But I'm still in the ring
I know what the blues is all about

Yes I been through the wringer
Right in the belly of the beast
Yes I been through the wringer
Right in the belly of the beast
And I seen all you vultures
Circle round for the feast
