Startin' With Me
I had a one night stand with my best friend's baby sisterAnd to this day he still won't speak to meI pawned my grandpa's old guitar in collageFor a case of beer and a tank of gasoline
I took a swing at my old man one ChristmasI never dreamed that it would be his lastI wish mom had rung my neck when she caught me with those cigarettesWhich reminds me, I'm down to my last pack
If I had a dime for half the things I didThat didn't make no sense at all, I'd be living a little higher on the hallIf only I'd've known that later on down the roadI'd look back and not like what I seeI'd've changed a lot of things startin' with me
I called my brother everything I could think ofThe night he wouldn't bail me out of jailI lost a job most folks 'round here would die forBy laying out all night and raising hell
And I let a woman that I love slip through my fingersChalk another dumb move up to my foolish prideI was in there standin' by the bed when the preacher bowed his headWith the family, the day my grandma die
If I had a dime for half the things I didThat didn't make no sense at all, I'd be living a little higher on the hallIf only I'd've known that later on down the roadI'd look back and not like what I seeOhh, I'd've changed a lot of things startin' with me
