Ignorant People Lyrics - Vic Chesnutt

Born as I was to ignorant people 

Too traumatized to take me home 

Came in a car and left on an embankment 

Covered with pine straw 

But instinct saved me 

Something innate 

Made my wet lungs scream with hate 

Scream with hatefound as I was fixing a flat tire 

He'd run 'em bald 

The schemer looked down upon the screamer 

Like buried treasure 

He nursed me and cherished me 

And trained me to be 

What is here in front of you 

A ticket to see, a ticket to see fate has been so good to me 

You may not understand 

How I can be thankful to be where I am 

To be where I am
