kenny chesney - a lot of things different lyrics

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 a gone on and saw elvis that night he came to town
but mama said i couldn't
and i'd a 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 wished i'd a spent more time with my dad when he was alive
now i don't 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'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've 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 a hurt nuthin
she loved to be held and kissed and touched but i didn't do it
not nearly enough
and if i'd a known that dance was going to be our last dance
i'd a 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 whoa oh i, i'd done a lot of things different
oh i, i'd done a lot of things
i think we've all do a lot of things different
