A Different Day Songtext
von Cody Johnson

I wish I′d been born in a different day
With cowboys like old Gus McCrae
I'd just saddle up and ride away
I wish I′d been born in a different day

Well, I wish I could've lived in a different time
When Willie and Waylon walked the line
It's an era long gone and it seems a crime
I wish I could′ve lived in a different time


Well, I′m stuck out here in no man's land
Just an ace of spades in a diamond flush hand
I still do the best I can to fit in
But time, it ain′t ever really been my friend

Well, I wish you could've seen me in a different light
I wish I could′ve been your shining knight
But I'll always be a friend in your eyes
Well, I wish you could′ve seen me in a different light

And now I'm stuck out here in no man's land
I′m just an ace of spades in a diamond flush hand
And I still do the best I can to fit in
But time, it ain′t ever really been my friend


Well, I wish I'd been born in a different day
With cowboys like old Gus McCrae
And I′d have just saddled up and rode away
I wish I'd been born in a different day
