Always Wanted To

Outside there's a rusty pickup Parked beneath the shed Mockingbirds nest on 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 trying 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 Learn how to fly a plane But I, I guess Even pictures we'd never take Memories we'd never make Still fade I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to They talk like I can't hear 'em When they ain't have to change my sheets They're getting tired and angry 'Cause I won't accept defeat Uncle Frank lived to be a hundred Hell, I'm only ninety-five 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 Learn how to fly a plane But I, I guess Even pictures we'd never take Memories we'd never make Still fade I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to Mmm mmm mmmm No no no no My Maria showed up this morning Floating right above that chair She smiled the sweetest smile As she hovered in the air When that fever stole her from me I was twenty seven, she was twenty five I never dreamed I'd see that 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 Learn how to fly a plane But I, I guess Even pictures we'd never take Memories we'd never make Still fade I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to Mmm mmm mmmm mmmm I never did all I wanted to do But I always wanted to
