I Wish Grandpas Never Died

verse 1 Wish girls you loved never gave back diamond rings I wish every porch had a swing I wish kids learned to say "sir" and "ma'am", how to shake a hand I wish every state had a Birmingham Pre-Chorus Wish everybody knew the words to Mama Tried I wish Monday mornings felt just like Friday nights I wish even cars had truck beds And every road was named Copperhead And coolers never ran out of cold Bud Light I wish high school home teams never lost And back road drinking kids never got caught I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high I wish honkytonks didn't have no closing time And I wish grandpas never died verse 2 I wish Sunday's on a creek bank would never end Wish I could learn to drive again I wish the first time, seventeen, she was my everything kiss in a Chevrolet It'd happen every day Pre-Chorus I wish everybody overseas was gonna make it home I wish Country music still played on Country radio I wish even cars had truck beds And every road was named Copperhead And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light I wish high school home teams never lost And back road drinking kids never got caught I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high I wish honkytonks didn't have no closing time And I wish grandpas never died I wish grandpas never died Bridge I wish good dogs never got grey and old I wish farms never got sold I wish even cars had truck beds And every road was named Copperhead And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light I wish high school home teams never lost And back road drinking kids never got caught I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high I wish honkytonks didn't have no closing time And I wish grandpas never died 'Cause grandpas never die
