Intro

Verse

Out

side there's a rusty pickup

Underneath a shed

Mockingbird's nest in the tailpipe

Empty

feed sack in the bed

T

hey 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

Chorus

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, 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

Verse

They

talk like I can't hear 'em

When

they 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

Chorus

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, 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

Verse

My

Marie showed up this morning

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 twenty

seven, she was just twenty five

I never

dreamed I'd see my angel again

While

I'm still alive

Chorus

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, 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

Outro

I never did all I

wanted to do

But I always wanted

to
