Could've Happened to Me

I was battle-torn and worn

I was ravaged by scores of arrows

Thought about it for a little while

Oh, yeah

Realized I could walk away someday

Rack of ties, a travel mug,

Telephone, a briefcase filled with papers

I thought about it for a little while

Oh, yeah

Realized I could leave the way I came

Oh my goodness

Oh my my

It could've happened to me

In a border town I learned to keep my hat brim down

Never talk to strangers

Thought about it for a little while

Oh, yeah

Realized I was only a drop in rain

Rack of ties, a travel mug,

Telephone, a briefcase full of papers

I thought about it for a little while

Oh, yeah

Realized I was only a link in a chain gang, babe

Always took their advice

I watched them lay down on the altar

Just like human sacrifices

Oh my goodness

Oh my my

It could've happened to me

Oh my goodness

Oh my my

It could've happened to me

Oh my goodness

Oh my my

It could've happened to me
