  • I screwed up seven summers in one afternoon gone wrong.
    What started out like Amazing 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 a peddle to the metal headed out of town.

    God knows a straightened arrow don't think much of guys like me.
    Live like there's no tomorrow, looks like there's going to be.
    I'm going to see if I can't right a couple wrongs,
    Before I wake up with another day gone.

    I missed her singing lasted Sunday,
    I showed up a hair too late.
    Back slothering the back road with a heavy heart and a headache.
    It's just a couple miles from my house,
    I don't go a lot cause it's just a million miles from the back road
    To that church parking lot.

    God knows a straightened arrow don't think much of guys like me.
    Live like there's no tomorrow,
    Looks like there's going to be.
    I'm going to see if I can't right a couple wrongs,
    Before I wake up with another day gone.

    Got a lot of pride to swallow, got a lot of here to feel.
    I know God will forgive me but who knows if she will.

    I'm going to see if I can't right a couple wrongs.
    Yeah, I'm going to see if I can't right a couple wrongs,
    Before I wake up with another day gone.

    I want to hear her angel voice singing a Sunday song
    Before I wake up with another day gone. Writer/s: B. Pinson, Barry Franklin Knox, John Matthew Thomas, Joshua Malcolm Mcswain, Matt Thomas
