Used To Be a Cop 가사

Used to be a cop, but i got to be too jumpy. I used to like to party till i coughed up half a lung. Sometimes late at night i hear the beat a-bumping I reach for my holster and i wake up all alone. Used to have a wife but she told me i was crazy. Said she couldn't stand the way i fidget all the time. Sometimes late at night i circle round the house. I look through the windows and i dream that she's still mine. I got scars on my back from the way my daddy raised me. I used to have a family until i got divorced. I've gone too far from the things that could save me. I used to be a cop, but they kicked me off the force. I used to be a cop, till they kicked me off the force. Used to have a car, but the bank came and took it. Paying for a house that that bitch lives in now. Children that we had won't even look at me. Guess there's nothing left to lose, nothing matters anyhow. Got a scar on my arm from the bullet that once grazed me. I keep it in a box to remind me where i've been. That thin blue line was the only thing that could save me. I used to have a badge but they made me turn it in. And i used to play football, but i wasn't big enough for college. But i passed the entrance exam first try, and on my way. Police academy gave me the only thing i was ever good at, But my temper and the shakes, and they took that thing away. Used to have a wife, but she just couldn't deal With the anger and the tension that was welling inside of me. Sometimes late at night, i circle round the house I look through the window and i remember how it used to be. I look through the windows and i remember how it used to be
