I Always Wanted To

Outside there's a rusty pickup Underneath a shed Mockingbird's nest in the tailpipe Empty feed sack in the bed They took away my keys Sayin' I'm too old to drive It's like they're tryin' to bury me While I'm still alive I always wanted a son I always wanted a woodshed I always wanted to ride on an open range And learn how to fly a plane, but I guess Even pictures we never take Memories we'll never make still fadе I never did all I wanted to do But I always wantеd to They talk like I can't hear 'em When they have to change my sheets They're gettin' tired and angry 'Cause I won't accept defeat Uncle Frank lived to be a hundred Hell, I'm only 95 I ain't raising no white flag While I'm still alive I always wanted a son I always wanted a woodshed I always wanted to ride on an open range And learn how to fly a plane, but I guess Even pictures we never take Memories we'll never make still fade I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to My Marie showed up this mornin' Floatin' right above that chair And she smiled the sweetest smile at me As she hovered in the air When that fever stole her from me I was 27 and she was just 25 I never dreamed I'd see my angel again While I'm still alive I always wanted a son I always wanted a woodshed I always wanted to ride on an open range And learn how to fly a plane, but I guess Even pictures we never take Memories we'll never make still fade I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to
