Would_If_I

WOULD IF I COULD

When I was young, guess I was a fool,

got cees and dees, most ' the time in school,

Ma said, "Son, you're wasting your days!

Why aren't you a gettin' "a"s?

And i said with a small chokey tear in my voice,

"It really isn't a matter of choice,

I know I should,

It's sad that I don't,

I would if I could,

but I can't!

So I won't.

Couldn't hit a baseball'

couldn't run a mile'

couldn't sing or write with any kind of style

couldn't get a job that paid,

couldn't learn a decent trade'

and when they asked, I said,

"Its sad that I don't,

I would if I could,

but I can't!

So I won't.

But, when you said, 'Please love me, true"

That I knew that I could do!

a funny feeling started to rise,

and I said, to my surprise,

"I know I should, and I think that I do!

I will, and I can! I'm in love with you!"

There ain't nothin' I can't do,

Since I fell in love with you,

I can climb a mountain,

I can roller skate,

I can love you plenty, and still get you home by eight,

Still don't know no algebra,

or any Shakespere sonnet,

and I'm not a rocket scientist,

but I'm workin' on it!

.....for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction...Did I say that??????

The End
