It Coulda Been Me

I got friends who are in prison,
Friends who are dead.
Im gonna tell you something
That Ive often said. chorus:
You know these things that happen,
Thats just the way its supposed to be.
And I cant help but wonder,
Dont ya know it coulda been me.
I had me a good girl,
Her kisses sweeter than wine.
And I had always hoped
That someday
Id make her mine. chorus:
But she ran off and married,
Thats just the way its supposed to be.
And I cant help but wonder ,
Dont ya know it coulda been me.
Well the junkie-cops on first street,
Sticks a needle in his arm.
No, he never meant to do
Anyone no harm . chorus:
But hes buried six feet deep,
Thats just the way its supposed to be.
And I cant help but wonder,
Dont ya know it coulda been me.
I had me a good girl,
Her kisses sweeter than wine.
And I had always hoped
That someday
Id make her mine.
