If it was up to me
Every road would be paved in dirt
Whiskey wouldn't give you hangovers
Every prayer would hit right on time
Every good dog would live to see 25
And this bar would stay open all night
And I wouldn't have to drink it dry
Just to drown out your goodbye
If it was up to me
You'd be here wrapped up in my arms
And I'd be 'bout anywhere but this bar
You'd be hittin' them brakes on that Chevrolet
Red line runnin' back to my place
You'd be back burnin' up my bed
Instead of turnin' them circles in my head
Wouldn't be just a goodbye memory
Oh, if it was up to me
This old heart wouldn't wanna break
Every time I hear your name
I'd turn back time and baby you'd still be mine
If it was up to me
You'd be here wrapped up in my arms
And I'd be 'bout anywhere but this bar
You'd be hittin' them brakes on that Chevrolet
Red line runnin' back to my place
You'd be back burnin' up my bed
Instead of turnin' them circles in my head
Wouldn't be just a goodbye memory
Oh, if it was up to me
You'd get a flat run out of gas
Call me to pick you up, get a second chance
This would all be a bad, bad dream
Oh, if it was up to me
Oh, yeah
If it was up to me
Oh, if it was up to me
You'd be here wrapped up in my arms
And I'd be 'bout anywhere but this bar
You'd be hittin' them brakes on that Chevrolet
Red line runnin' back to my place
You'd be back burnin' up my bed
Instead of turnin' them circles in my head
Wouldn't be just a goodbye memory
Oh, if it was up to me
Oh, yeah
If it was up to me
You wouldn't be just a memory
Oh, if it was up to me
