It Coulda Been Me

I got friends who are in prison
Friends who are dead
I'm gonna tell ya something
That I've often said

You know these things that happen
That's just the way it's supposed to be
And I can't help but wonder
Don't ya know it coulda been me

Well, I had me a good girl
Her kisses sweeter than wine
And I had always hoped
That someday I'd make her mine

But she ran off and married
That's just the way it's supposed to be
And I can't help but wonder
Don't ya know it coulda been me

Well the junkie cop's on First Street
Sticks a needle in his arm
No, he never meant to do
Anyone no harm

But he's buried six feet deep
That's just the way it's supposed to be
And I can't help but wonder
Don't ya know it coulda been me

I had me a good girl
Her kisses sweeter than wine
And I had always hoped
That someday I'd make her mine

And I can't help but wonder
Don't ya know it coulda been me

Coulda been me. (x8)
Coulda been...
Should've been...
Me
