When I was fifteen I had running back dreams, but never did run too far

Thought I was gonna be #3 one day, till I wrecked my old man's car

I almost finished college, but I ain't cut from that cloth

Used to wish I was, but I'm glad I'm not.

I'm just an old carolina good ole boy

Boys, I ain't got no choice

I pick a little guitar in the evening

Wear mossy oak out of deer season

I couldn't be anybody but me even if I tried

I used to wish I was, but I'm glad I'm not.

Used to have a tennessee bill dancehat, but barely ever got 'em in the boat

I used to want to hit 'em like chipper did, but I swung it just a little too slow

Yeah, these days I don't wanna be anybody but me

I used to wish I was, but I'm glad I'm not.
