John Anderson Wish I Could Have Been There Lyrics

 

When our baby Kate was born it was the biggest day of my life

Lying there, little bows in her hair

In the loving arms of my wife

I was the proudest papa in the USA

Makin' a living on the road somewhere a thousand miles away

 

It was a happy day, but kinda' sad

And I wish I coulda' been there

Yea I wish I coulda' been there

I wish I coulda been there for that

 

Little Bobby hit his first home run

He was the hero of the home town crowd

Two to one, it was a winning run

Everybody was cheering loud

And mommy she was smilin' saying he's a chip off of the old block

But I was on the road somewhere between Memphis and Little Rock

 

It was a happy day but kinda' sad

And I wish I coulda' been there

Yea I wish I coulda' been there

I wish I coulda' been there for that

 

Now Bobby and Kate are all grown up

And moved away

They stay in touch 

We're proud of the two good kids we raised

And it's hard to believe we are celebrating our twenty fifth year today

This party's nice but the kids aren't here

At least they called to say

Congratulations mom and dad

 

I wish we could have been there

I wish we could have been there

I wish we could have been there for that

It was a happy day, but kinda' sad

And I wish they could have been there

Yea I wish they could have been there 

I wish they could have been there, for that
