I Wish I Could Be Lyrics - The Statler Brothers

I wish I could be in Knoxville tonight so I wouldn't worry if you were all right 

And you wouldn't wonder where I spent the night 

If I could only be in Knoxville tonight 

I wish I could be in St Paul today and watch you get dressed and ready for your day 

And tell you some things I know you've been told 

If I could get the St Paul before it gets cold 

I wish I could sleep tonight in Little Rock 

But then we never did go too much by the clock 

But I don't remember here and you ever complain 

I'd sleep tonight in Little Rock if I could fly a plane 

I'd give everything I have if things had just begun 

You were lying there in North Caolina sun 

Every thing we had was still yet to be Carolina you sure does the best of me
