[Darrell Scott - I Wish lyrics]
I wish I was a chauffeur
California, New Year's Eve
Driving around a pretty lady with
A hanky up her sleeve
I would light her tiparillos just
As civil as you please
I wish I was a diver on
A ship with Jacques Cousteau
I'd get a picture in our rubber
Suit's so that everyone would know
"Hey, you really know Jacques?"
I'd say, "yeah, just look at this"
I'd show it everywhere I
Go, Jacques Cousteau, jacques Cousteau
I wish I was a cartoon
I wish I was Peter Pan
Then I could fly away from sorrow and
Never have to feel like a man
You ask me why I'm still a child, boy?
Well, it's just because I am
Well I wish I had a cabin on
The top of some big hill
I'd build a fire every evening
And listen to the whippoorwill
Eat my food out of a garden and
Drink my whiskey from a still
Well I wish I was a diamond on
The back of your skinny little hand
Then I could keep my eye on you girl
Maybe then, maybe then I would understand
How you just leave us all weeping just
To prove that you still can
Sure you still can you still gotta
