A Different Day

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. 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.
