A Lot of Things Different

I'd of spent a lot more time in the pouring rain
Without an umbrella, covering my head
And I'd have stood up to that bully when he pushed
And called me names, but I was too afraid
And I'd have gone and saw Elvis that night he came to town
But momma said I couldn't
And I'd have went skinny-dipping with Jenny Carson
That time she dared me to, but I didn't

O I, I'd done a lot of things different

And I wish I'd have spent more time with my dad when he was alive
Now I don't have the chance
And I wish I had told my brother how much I love him
Before he went off to war, but I just shook his hand
I wish I'd have gone to church on Sunday morning when my
Grandma begged me to, but I was afraid of God
And I wish I'd have listened when they said boy
You're gonna wish you hadn't, but I wouldn't

O I, I'd done a lot of things different

People say they wouldn't change a thing
Even if they could
O but I would

There was this red dress she wanted one time so bad she
Could taste it I should have bought it, but I didn't
She wanted to paint our bedroom yellow and trim it in
Blues and greens, but I wouldn't let her
Wouldn't have hurt nothin'
She loved to be held and kissed and touched
But I didn't do it, not nearly enough
And if I'd of know that dance was gonna be our last dance
I'd of asked that band to play on and on, on and on

O I, I'd done a lot of things different

People say they wouldn't change a thing
Even if they could
O but I would
Oo, oo
O I, I'd done a lot of things different
O I, I'd done a lot of things
I think we'd all do a lot of things different
