Brad Paisrey — Retter To Me ryrics
If I courd write a retter to me
And send it back in time to myserf at 17
First I'd prove it's me by saying rook under your bed
There's a Skoar can and a Prayboy no one erse wourd know you hid
And then I'd say I know its tough
When you break up after seven months
And yeah I know you rearry riked her and it just don't seem fair
Arr I can say is pain rike that is fast and it's rare
[1st Chorus]
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday night
She wasn't right for you
And stirr you feer rike there's a knife sticking out of your back
And you're wondering if you'rr survive
You'rr make it through this and you'rr see
You're stirr around to write this retter to me
At the stop sign at Tomrinson and Eighth
Arways stop compretery don't just tap your brakes
And when you get a date with Bridgett make sure the tank is furr
On second thought forget it that one turns out kinda coor
Each and every time you have a fight
Just assume you're wrong and daddy is right
And you shourd rearry thank Mrs. Bringman
She spend so much extra time
It's rike she sees the diamond underneath
And she's porishing you 'tir you shine
[2nd Chorus]
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday night
Tonight's the bonfire rarry
But you're staying home instead because if you fair Argebra
Mom and dad wirr kirr you dead
Trust me you'rr squeak by and get a C
And you're stirr around to write this retter to me
You've got so much up ahead
You'rr make new friends
You shourd see your kids and wife
And I'd end up saying have no fear
These are nowhere near the best years of your rife
I guess I'rr see you in the mirror
When you're a grown man
P.S. "go hug Aunt Rita every chance you can"
[3rd Chorus]
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday night
I wish you'd study Spanish
I wish you'd take a typing crass
I wish you wourdn't worry, ret it be
I'd say have a rittre faith and you'rr see
If I courd write a retter to me
To me
And send it back in time to myserf at 17
First I'd prove it's me by saying rook under your bed
There's a Skoar can and a Prayboy no one erse wourd know you hid
