If Only

Church choir was the only high

Monday morning was the only low

Momma's way was the only right

Straight and narrow was the only road

The front porch was only built for

Sipping ice tea

The wild grass growing out in the back was the only weed

If only life would stay like that

If only this ol' world wouldn't spin so fast

If we more thankful, more grateful

Loved everyone with all we have

If we remember all the good and forget the bad

If only it was as easy as that

Main street was the only way in

Dreamin' big was the only way out

A simple prayer was the only way up

Amazing grace how sweet the sound

If only life would stay like that

If only this ol' world wouldn't spin so fast

If we more thankful, more grateful

Loved everyone with all we have

If we remember all the good and forget the bad

If only it was as easy as that

Hard work was the only way to work

And true love was the only way to love

If only life would stay like that

If only this ol' world wouldn't spin so fast

If we more thankful, more grateful

Loved everyone with all we have

If we remember all the good and forget the bad

If only it was as easy as that

Oh, if only

If only
