A LOT OF THINGS DIFFERENT

I'd spent a lot more time out 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 gone on and saw Elvis that night he came to town
Mama said I couldn't
I'd went skinny dippin' with Jenny Carson that time she dared me to
But, I didnt
Oooh I, I'd done a lot of things differnt

I wish I woulda spent more time with my dad when he was alive
Now I dont have the chance
I wish I would'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 gone to church on Sunday morning when my grandma begged me to
But I was afraid of God
I wish I'd woulda listened when they said "boy your gonna wish you hadn't"
But I wouldnt
Oooh I, I'd done a lot of things differnt

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

There was this red dress she wanted one time so bad she could taste it
I should've bought it
But I didnt
She wanted to paint our bedroom yellow and trim it in blue's and green's
But I wouldnt let her
It wouldnt have hurt nothin'
She loved to be held and kissed and touched
But I didnt do it
Not nearly enough
And if I'd known that dance was gonna be our last dance
I'd of asked that band to play
On and on
Ooon and ooon
Oooh I, I'd done a lot of things different

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

Ooooh oooh

Oooh I, I'd done a lot of things different
Oooh I, I'd done a lot of things...
I think we'd all do a lot of things different

Yeah...I know I would...that's for sure
