"What I'd Give" lyrics

It's almost dark at the trailer park
And all the family's here
Talkin' 'bout how we miss ya
It's hardly been a year
I was buying bait up at Buckhorn Lake
The day you said "so long"
You'll never know how it rippled out
From our little pond

If I could go back, I'd pick you up
And hide you away from all that god damn stuff
Living back home like we were kids
Sitting on the porch, God what I'd give

Lynn's smoking now and stays up late
All through the night she rocks
Scrubbing stains off your work clothes
Sorting all your socks
Tammy swears she don't even car
Hurts to hear your name
Bob still drinks in the basement
He don't watch the games

If I could go back, I'd pick you up
And hide you away from all that god damn stuff
Living back home like we were kids
Sitting on the porch, God what I'd give

I start your car every Friday night
The mighty Cavalier
Your parking pass and your necklace
Fading on the mirror
We rode to school in that country jewel
And always said our prayers
Was a little rough, tough enough
To take us anywhere

If I could go back, I'd pick you up
And hide you away from all that god damn stuff
Living back home like we were kids
Sitting on the porch, God what I'd give
