I had a one night stand with my best friends baby sister And to this day he still wont speak to me I pawned my grandpa's old guitar in collage For a case of beer and a tank of gasoline I took a swing at my old man at christmas I never dreamed that it would be his last I wish mom had rung my neck When she caught me with them cigarettes Which reminds me, i'm down to my last pack If i had a dime For half the things i did That didn't make no sense at all I'd be living a little higher on the hall If only i'd've known That later on down the road I'd look back and not like what i see I'd've changed a lot of things Startin' with me I called my brother everything i could think of The night he wouldn't bail me out of jail I lost a job most folks 'round here would die for By laying out all night and raising hell And i let a woman that i love slip through my fingers Chalk another dumb move up to my foolish pride I was there standin' by the bed When the preacher bowed his head With the family, the day my grandma die If i had a dime For half the things i did That didn't make no sense at all I'd be living a little higher on the hall If only i'd've known That later on down the road I'd look back and not like what i see I'd've changed a lot of things Startin' with me If only i'd've known That later on down the road I'd look back and not like what i see Whoa, i'd've changed a lot of things Startin' with me Startin' with me
