Eric Church

Poor, old granddad, I laughed at all his words
Thought he was a bitter man, he spoke of women's ways
Trap you, then use you before you even know
Love is blind, you're far too kind, don't ever let it show

I wish I knew what I know now
When I was younger
Wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger

Can-can's such a pretty show, they steal your heart away
But backstage, back on earth again, the dressin' rooms are gray
They come on strong, ain't too long before they make you feel a man
But love is blind, soon you'll find you're just a boy again

When you want her lips, you get a cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
And if you want some more and she's fast asleep
Then you're twinklin' with the stars
Poor young grandson, there's nothin' I can say
You have to learn just like me and that's the hardest way

Ooh la la, ooh la la la la

Yeah I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger
I Wish I knew what I know now
When I was stronger
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger
I Wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger

Ooh la la, ooh la la la la la la la
Ooh la la, ooh la la la la la la la
Ooh la la, ooh la la la la la la la
Ooh la la
I Wish I knew what I know now
I Wish I knew what I know now

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
