I´d spend a lot more time in the pouring rain without an umbrella Covering my head And I´d stood up to that bully when he pushed and called me names
But I was too afraid And I´d´ve gone on and saw Elvis that night he came to town But mama said I couldn´t And I´d´ve went skinny dipping with Jenny Carson that time she dared me to But I didn´t
Oh, I, I´d done a lot of things different
I wish I´d´ve spent more time with my dad when he was alive Now I don´t have the chance And I wish I´d´ve told my brother how much I loved him before he went off to war But I just shook his hand I wish I´d´ve gone to church on Sunday morning when my grandma begged me to
But I was afraid of God And I wish I would´ve listened when they said, "Boy, you´re gonna wish you hadn´t" But I wouldn´t
Oh, I, I´d done a lot of things different
People say they wouldn´t 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 have bought it, but I didn´t She wanted to paint our bedroom yellow and trim it blues and greens
But I wouldn´t let her, wouldn´t´ve hurt nothing She loved to be held and kissed and touched But I didn´t do it, not nearly enough And if I´d´ve known that dance was gonna be our last dance I´d´ve asked that band to play On and on, on and on
Oh, I, I´d done a lot of things different
People say they wouldn´t change a thing Even if they could Oh, but I would Oh, oh, I, I´d done a lot of things different Oh, I, I´d done a lot of things I think we´d all do a lot of things different
