A Different Day

I wish I’d been born in a different day, with cowboys like old Gus McCrae.
I’d just saddle up and ride away.
I wish I’d been born in a different day.
Well, I wish I could’ve lived in a different time, when Willie and Waylon
walked the line.
It’s an era long gone and it seems a crime.
I wish I could’ve lived in a different time.
Well, I’m stuck out here in no man’s land.
Just an ace of spades in a diamond flush hand.
I still do the best I can to fit in, but time it ain’t ever really been my
friend.
Well I wish you could’ve seen me in a different light.
I wish I could’ve been your shining knight, but I’ll always be a friend in your
eyes.
Well, I wish you could’ve seen me in a different light.
And now I’m stuck out here in no man’s land.
I’m just an ace of spades in a diamond flush hand.
I still do the best I can to fit in, but time it ain’t ever really been my
friend.
Well I wish I’d been born in a different day, with cowboys like old Gus McCrae,
and I’d have just saddled up and rode away.
I wish I’d been born in a different day.
