Corey Smith - If I Could Do It Again Lyrics






Best friends in a pickup truck, we were Panama City bound
Eight hours in the back, wind blowin with the sun beatin down
Makin plans to raise some hell, celebratin our senior year
We had a trash bag full of clothes and a suitcase full of beers
We got pulled over by the Alabama State Patrol
But they never found the booze, so they had to let us go

If I could do it again, you know I'd do it the same

Got a room at the Beach Club Inn, it was a dump but we didn't care
Between the cruisin and the beach and the clubs we were hardly ever there
We'd get drunk and raise some hell and I play my guitar in the sand
Everyone would come and sing along and the pretty girls would dance
The Florida shore it really put a spell on me
Turned a quiet Sunday school boy into the life of the party

If I could do it again you know I'd do it the same
I'd pass out on the beach drinkin Golden Grain
I'd wake up covered in sand with that bottle in my hand
Then I'd go for a swim and start drinkin again
Oh I'd break all the rules, just like I used to do
If I could do it again yea

I met a girl from Tennessee, no I don't remember her name
But I can still see her top pulled down and that belly button ring
We kissed but I didn't tell no, I had to keep it hush on the down low
I had girlfriend back at home and she didn't need to know
Sure I felt a little guilty as we dusted off our clothes
But she was wild and she was fine Lord, worth every lie I told

If I could do it again, you know I'd do it the same
With the one night stands and the drinkin games
You know I'd check out the girls at the clubs, hookin up whenever I could
Sex on a beach never tasted as good
I'd break my first love's heart, forget to hide the fingernail marks
If I could do it again yea

I'd get sunburned on a new tattoo, lose my favorite jeans and my tennis shoes
Get kicked out of my hotel room and sleep in the truck for a night or two
Blow all my money, have to call my dad and work two months just to pay him back
Take bong hits and laugh like hell, flip the police off and get hauled to jail
If I could do it again I'd do it the same, not one regret I wouldn't change a thing

I'd check out the girls at the clubs, hookin up whenever I could
Oh, oh, ohhh, I'd wake up covered in sand, with that bottle in my hand
Ohhhhh, I'd break all the rules, just like I use to do
If I could do it again, how bout you
If I could do it again, do it again
Best friends in a pick-up truck, we were Panama City bound

    Best friends in a pickup truck, we were Panama City bound
    Eight hours in the back, wind blowin' with the sun beatin' down
    Makin' plans to raise some hell, celebratin' our senior year
    I had a trash bag full of clothes and a suitcase full of beer
    We got pulled over by the Alabama State Patrol
    But they never found the booze, so they had to let us go

    [Chorus]
    If I could do it again, you know I'd do it the same
    Pass out on the beach drinkin' Golden Grain
    I'd wake up covered in sand with that bottle in my hand
    Then I'd go for a swim and start drinkin' again
    I'd break all of the rules just liked I used to do
    If I could do it again, yeah
    Do it again

    [Verse 2]
    I met a girl from Tennessee, no I don't remember her name
    But I can still see her top pulled down and that belly button ring
    We kissed but I didn't tell, no, I had to keep it hush on the down low
    I had girlfriend back at home and she didn't need to know
    Sure I felt a little guilty as we dusted off our clothes
    But she was wild and she was fine Lord, worth every lie I told
    Aww yeah


    [Chorus]
    If I could do it again, you know I'd do it the same
    With the one night stands and the drinkin' games
    You know I'd check out the girls at the clubs, hookin' up whenever I could
    Sex on a beach never tasted as good
    I'd break my first love's heart, forget to hide the fingernail marks
    If I could do it again

    [Verse 3]
    I'd get sunburned on a new tattoo, lose my favorite jeans and my tennis shoes
    Get kicked out of my hotel room and sleep in the truck for a night or two
    Blow all my money, have to call my dad and work two months just to pay him back
    Take bong hits and laugh like hell, flip the police off and get hauled to jail
    If I could do it again I'd do it the same, not one regret I wouldn't change a thing

    [Chorus]
    I'd check out the girls at the club, hookin' up whenever I could
    I'd wake up covered in sand with that bottle in my hand
    Aww yeah
    I'd break all of the rules just liked I used to do
    If I could do it again, how 'bout you
    I'd like to do it again, Lord
    If I could do it again, how 'bout you
    I'd like to do it again, Lord

    ...see how it felt

  3. K.... 4....

    Fucking senior trip 2012. Took my 1996 Chevy z71 with me and my 4 buddies and one of his girl friends (don’t ask me how they managed to fit in the small back seat) we loaded the bed up with 3 coolers and had a 30 pack in each. We drove from Tennessee down to Panama City. We were hammered every night till we left. Shitty thing my radiator had a hole in it and was leaking water so I about blew that up and I had no money to get it fixed down there we had done all spent our graduation money and only had enough for gas to get back. Other than that we had a great fucking time

  4. K.... H....

    I'd have never went down that hill (like I used to all the time) ended up with tramatic brain injury and walk with a limp the right side of my body is paralyzed wouldn't do that again the docs said I'd never walk again showed their ass but yeah wouldn't do that again lol
