Young Rebel Set If I Was
If I was a sailor I would sail you out to sea Take you across the ocean, ask you to marry me Oh if I was sailor I would sail you home to me And if I was a soldier I would march to war for you I'd face every bullet and cannonball that flew Oh if I was a soldier I would wage a war for you And if I was a jailer I would lock you away Then I'd have the key to see you each and every day Oh if I was a jailer I would still have you today And if I was a rich man I'd buy you flowers every day But I am a poor man so I'll pick them on the way Oh if I was a rich man I would pay to make you to stay.
I've wasted so much time Writing songs and playing on my guitar I've wasted so much love Now I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
And if I had an aeroplane then I'd fly you away Maybe we go to Rome or Paris for the day Oh if I had an aeroplane then I'd whisk you away And if I was a betting man I'd bet you love me too I'd bet everything I had for the chance to be with you Oh if I was a betting man my odds are 9-2.
I've wasted so much time Writing songs and playing on my guitar I've wasted so much love Now I wish I'd never learnt to play a note Yeah I wish I'd never learnt to play a note Oh I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
I've wasted so much time Writing songs and playing on my guitar I've wasted so much love Oh I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
And if I was a writer I would write the book on you I'd tell them all the stories of the things we used to do Oh if I was a writer I would write the book on you And if I was a painter I'd paint portraits of you Hang them in the galleries like all good painter do Oh if I was a painter I'd paint potraits of you.
I've wasted so much time Writing songs and playing on my guitar I've wasted so much love Now I wish I'd never learnt to play a note Yeah I wish I'd never learnt to play a note Oh I wish I'd never learnt to play a note.
