A Lot of Things Different

I? spend a lot more time in the pouring rain without
an umbrella
Covering my head
And I? stood up to that bully when he pushed and
called me names
But I was too afraid
And I? a gone on and saw Elvis that night he came to town
But mama said I couldn?
And I? a went skinny dipping with Jenny Carson that
time she dared me too
But I didn?
Oh I, I? done a lot of things different
I wished I? a spent more time with my dad when he was
alive
Now I don? have the chance
I wish I had told my brother how much I loved him
before he went off to war
But I just shook his hand
And I wish I had gone to church on Sunday morning when
my grandma begged me too
But I was afraid of God
And I wish I would? e listened when they said Boy,
you? e gonna wish you hadn?
But I wouldn?
Oh I, I? done a lot of things different
People say they wouldn? change a thing, even if they
could
Oh but I would
There was this red dress she wanted one time so bad
she could taste it And I should? e bought it, but I didn?
She wanted to paint our bedroom yellow and trim it blues and greens
But I wouldn? let her, wouldn? a hurt nuthinShe loved
to be held and kissed
and touched but I didn? do it Not nearly enough
And if I? a known that dance was going to be our last
dance
I? a asked that band to play on and on on and on Oh I, I? done a lot of things different
People say they wouldn? change a thing, even if they
could
Oh but I would
Oh whoa Oh I, I? done a lot of things different
Oh I, I? done a lot of things
I think we? all do a lot of things different
