Correction Lyrics I Wish Grandpas Never Died (Live) by Riley Green

Lyrics

I wish girls you loved never gave back diamond rings
I wish every porch had a swing
Wish kids still learned to say "sir" and "ma'am," how to shake a hand
I wish every state had a Birmingham

Wish everybody knew all the words to "Mama Tried"
I wish Monday morning's felt just like Thursday nights

And I wish even cars had truck beds
And every road was named Copperhead
And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light
And I wish high school home teams never lost
And backroad drinkin' kids never got caught
I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high
And I wish honky-tonks didn't have no closin' time
I wish grandpas never died

I wish Sunday's on a creek bank would never end
Wish I could learn to drive again
Wish the first time, seventeen, she was my everything kiss in a Chevrolet
Could happen every day
I wish everybody overseas was gonna make it back home
I wish damn country music still got played on country radio

And I wish even cars had truck beds
And every road was named Copperhead
And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light
And I wish high school home teams never lost
And backroad drinkin' kids never got caught
Wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high
And I wish honky-tonks didn't have no closin' time
And I wish grandpas never died
I wish grandpas never died

And I wish good dogs never got grey and old
I wish farms never got sold
Y'all know this song?
So, I played at, uh, a place called the Furniture Factory down the road, y'all remember that place?
Some of you might've been there
Then we played in the Von Braun Center in like a theater, you had to be seated
But y'all didn't sit down, they stood up when we played over there
And then we played over here in the Mars Music Hall, some of y'all might've been at that show
Needless to say, this is by far my favorite show I've played in Huntsville, Alabama and the biggest crowd
Thank y'all so much for comin' out and lettin' us play, this is awesome
I would love to see how loud y'all can sing this last chorus
Y'all think y'all know it well enough to sing it loud one more time?
Can I get my folks with the lights to cut the lights down in here a lil' bit? Y'all got the lil' light on your phone
We'll light this place up ourselves and see how loud y'all can sing it one time, y'all ready?
I wish (Even cars had truck beds)
(And every road was named Copperhead)
(And coolers never run out of cold Bud Light)
And I wish (High school home teams never lost)
(And backroad drinkin' kids never got caught)
(I wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high)
(I wish honky-tonks didn't have no closin' time)
(And I wish grandpas never died) Y'all sound pretty damn good
I wish even cars had truck beds
And every road was named Copperhead
And coolers never run out of cold Busch Light
And I wish high school home teams never lost
And backroad drinkin' kids never got caught
Wish the price of gas was low and cotton was high
I wish Von Braun Center didn't have no closin' time
I wish grandpas never died
I wish grandpas never died
Thank y'all for makin' that my first platinum record in country music, I appreciate that
Thank y'all so much, I appreciate it
