If I were a little wiser
Here's what I'd do
Well I'd go down South and drink from the fountain of youth
We could live, we could live forever then
And If I were a little kinder
Here's what I'd do
Well I'd never say another cruel word to you
You'd love me, you would love me again
Sometimes I live in the country or the town
Sometimes I wanna jump in the river and drown
Lately I've been hangin' "˜round
With nothin' in my head
And it's better off than dead
Ain't that just what Jesus said?
Or something like, or something like that?
If I were a little faster,
Here's what I'd do
Well I'd jump on the highway
Doin' ninety-two
And I'd see your pretty face again
If I were a little smarter,
Here's what I'd do
Well I'd go to a church and say a prayer for you
We could be, we could be together then.
Sometimes I live in the country or the town
Sometimes I wanna jump in the river and drown
Lately I've been hangin' "˜round
With nothin' in my head
And it's better off than dead
Ain't that just what someone said?
Or something like, or something like that?
