I Wish Grandpas Never Died

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
Wish everybody knew the words to Mama Tried
I wish Monday mornings felt just like Friday night
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
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
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 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
