Coulda been 5A All-State
If I'da been at the gym 'stead of at the lake
Coulda been top of my class 'stead of smokin' that grass
Rollin' nowhere in the fast lane
Just a couple things that I might change
If I was anyone other who I am
I might be gettin' drunk, wishin' on what mighta been
Might feel a little older by now
Might have a few roots in this ground
I might look back and not like what I see
If I'da been anybody, if I'da been anybody
If I'da been anybody other than me
Coulda kept a ring on my weddin' hand
If I'da broke less hearts in the bars back in Birmingham
Coulda kept more of my friends
If I'd never left that safer bet back behind the van
I'd still be waitin' on a second chance
If I was anyone other who I am
I might be gettin' drunk, wishin' on what mighta been
Might feel a little older by now
Might have a few roots in this ground
I might look back and not like what I see
If I'da been anybody, if I'da been anybody
If I'da been anybody other than me
Yeah
If I'da been anybody
Yeah, I did what I did
I own how I lived
I'd do it again
I'd only do it different
If I was anyone other who I am
I might be gettin' drunk, wishin' on what mighta been
Might feel a little older by now
Might have a few roots in this ground
I might look back and not like what I see
I might be chasin' down another man's dream
If I'da been anybody, if I'da been anybody
If I'da been anybody other than me
Other than me
If I'da been anybody (other than me)
If I'da been anybody (if I'da been anybody)
If I'da been anybody other than me
