Been There-NDE

Been There - NDE John Anderson Miscellaneous I Wish I Could Have Been There (1994) 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 Making a living on the road somewhere a thousand miles away It was a happy day but kind-a sad I wish I could-a been there I wish I could-a been there I wish I could-a been there for that Little Bobby hit his first home run he was the hero of the hometown crowd Two to one it was the winning run, everybody was cheering loud And mama she was smiling 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 kind-a sad I wish I could-a been there I wish I could-a been there I wish I could-a 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're celebrating our 25th 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-a been there I wish we could-a been there I wish we could-a been there for that It was a happy day, but kind-a sad I wish they could-a been there I wish they could-a been there I wish they could-a been there for that
