[Verse 1]
I screwed up seven summers
In one afternoon gone wrong
What started out like Amazin' Grace
Ended like a Springsteen song
All she wanted was a little less reckless
All she needed was some settle down
But all she got was a second-hand Chevy
With the pedal to the metal headed outta town
[Chorus]
God knows the straight and narrow
Don't think much of guys like me
Live like there's no tomorrow
Looks like there's gonna be
I'm gonna see if I can't right a couple wrongs
Before I wake up with another day gone
[Verse 2]
I missed her singin' last Sunday
I showed up a hair too late
Backslider in the back row
With a heavy heart and a headache
It's just a couple miles from my house
But I don't go a lot, 'cause it's a
Million miles from the back road
To that church parkin' lot
[Chorus]
God knows the straight and narrow
Don't think much of guys like me
Live like there's no tomorrow
Looks like there's gonna be
I'm gonna see if I can't right a couple wrongs
Before I wake up with another day gone
[Bridge]
Got a lot of pride to swallow
Got a lot of [?]
I know God will forgive me
But who knows if she will
Yeah, I'm gonna see if I can't right a couple wrongs
Yeah, I'm gonna see if I can't right a couple wrongs
Before I wake up with another day gone
[Outro]
I wanna hear her angel voice
Singing a Sunday song
Before I wake up with another day gone
