wish my life was better!

Lyrics

I WISH

I wish I could be free in a wide open space
And ride across the Plains with the wind on my face.
I wish I had a log cabin way out west
And went out with Crazy Horse on a Vision Quest.
They say anything is possible, its up to you
But what?s the point of dreams if they don?t come true?

I wish I had the money to give up my job
And live on a farm growing corn-on-the-cob, yeah!
My kids could drive a tractor, or play in the shade
And we?d all sit on the porch drinking lemonade.
I wish I had a farm - we could have a good time
I wish that Richard Branson was a good friend of mine!

Rain on my window
I can?t get nothing done
I wanna head for the Big Sky
But I?m too busy wishing
For the sun.

I wish we wouldn?t argue ?bout stupid little things
And I wish you?d change your taste in indoor furnishings.
I wish you wouldn?t put things where they don?t belong,
And sit and watch TV when there?s bugger-all on.
I wish you wouldn?t sulk, and walk off in a huff,
I wish I could be happy with the woman I love.

Rain on the horizon
It gets so hard to find a friend
Think I?ll move to the Big Sky
Make the same mistakes
All over again.

GUITAR SOLO

I wish that I could shake off this melancholy mask
And live for the present and forget about the past.
I wish I could?a said goodbye to my friend Slim,
I wish I had the chance just to live my life again.
Some people make do, some do what they can,
I wish I could be happy with who I am.

Rain on my window
I can?t get nothing done
I wanna head for the Big Sky
But I?m too busy wishing
For the sun.
