What I Almost Was-Eric Church (Lyrics)

[36countryman]

My dad still has the tennnessee combined yards in a game record had a scholarship to Florida state but then had me when he was 17

[TheJacobterry]

The Convo's in Jonesboro. Get it right dumb shit

[kwmballar1]

if it was his senior year, how did he walk on next summer and get cut?

[EleganceUntamed]

@kwmballar1 freshman yr of college, he had an offer n a 4 yr scholarship at least thats what the song says

[RunningBlind182]

this is my favorite song by eric chuch all his songs r really awsome but this 1 is just perfect and its tru about his life

[ihatekate08]

When my ex decided she wanted me to stay, she told me she was pregnant..Now, after about 3 weeks, two packs a day, and runnin off to my hometown with her, she tells me she lied. The first words to come out were "thank god I aint what I almost was" love this song.

[TonyTurboify]

[Bagheralover2]

@TonyTurboify Sinners like me.

[5150theredrocker]

[chelsiesmiles182]

Thank god I ain't what I almost was!

[natemullins1354]

Gotta give props to a country artist who actually writes his own stuff, Eric Church is the man

[qIDKp]

[ShawneeJonL]

[neverlift44]

[TheHorsekisser]

Me and my boyfriend were suppost to be married a couple months from now. And he cheated on me rite infront of me, than decided to beat me up. Well I thank God i iant what i almost was. And God has put the most amazing man in my life, never laid a finger on me in harm, never heard a stray word of hurt from his mouth to me or my family. I love ya Phillip<3

[GrantGuides]

I'm only a mere teenage boy but I sure am proud of who I am and this song makes me think of just that.

[GTSleeper1]

Just seen an ex of mine this weekend, and I loved her more then anything when we were together. She said she was still in love me. I seen that she really wasn't when I got there. I thank god I ain't what I almost was.

[PbaLLa68]

I almost was a second rate college student, the marine corps has made me proud that im not what I almost was.

[shelbi16ne]

So glad I bought tickets to his concert.. <3

[crazyncrazyier]

[MegaJorge43]

justin lol

[swervmerv1]

It's sad how much people get pissed off in arguments over you tube. Enjoy the damn music.

[TheMan4230]

This song hits close to home... I had a Division 1 ride for basketball until i blew out my ankle dunking on someone in a pick up game.. after that I was never the same and tried to walk on the following year and was cut. After that I have come out a stronger person and found what really matters in life. Thank god I aint what i almost was.

[letgoandletmusic]

the intro sounds like "breathless" by the corrs.

[11dozentears]

I thank god I aint what I almost was! I'da been some cooped up housewife for some abusive bastard. I packed up my truck and left when he was out one night. Thank god I aint what I almost was!

[cdcherish11]

i saw him in concert night before last, hes sooo great!

[whatupdawg40]

My new favorite song! Eric Church has great material!

[thaaeroprincess87]

I thank God I ain't an army wife to a boy who never truly loved me for me but just for what he thought he could make me into. On a side note this is another great song from Mr. Church.

[Countrtyhick13]

Best song! love it, so happy i get to see him in concert with jason aldean (=

[TDgangsta76]

@CoreyPerrySucks 

[RBurton7941]

@CoreyPerrySucks Who the fuck cares? Quit crying. Man up, pussy,

[CoreyPerrySucks]

@RBurton7941- hey dumbass, obviously you dont know how to read. It says, Im glad that happened. I never said anything about crying, fucking idiot

[RBurton7941]

@CoreyPerrySucks Let me rephrase that...quit telling your gay ass story on youtube. Better? It's your dumbass fault for fucking a slut and letting her own your ass. No wonder she left you.

[CoreyPerrySucks]

@RBurton7941 ohh wow, how fucking mature of you. Sorry im not like you, fucking douchebag. Go Burn in hell and have satan butt fuck your ass. Do us a favor and go get hit by a bus

[Lonewolfff36]

@CoreyPerrySucks I had thumbed up your comment...then I noticed your youtube name and now I want to give you a high 5 and possibly even a hug. Perry has one of those faces I want to beat every time I see it. Amen dude.

[CoreyPerrySucks]

@Lonewolfff36

[guitarrebel22]

Eric Church is one of those artists that just sums up my life in every song he does...but this one and "love your love the most" are an uncanny reflection.

[yjbeef]

[baysideismyhero]

two games into senior year, after starting against the #1 team in the state, i blew out my knee in practice. endded up fishing after school instead and met my best friend becasue of it. i am walking on to the girls soccer team at my school next fall, will probably get cut, but i will never know if i don't try. but i thank god every day for my best friend.

[joeu5431]

@baysideismyhero Hell yeah, You don't know whats gona happen 'till ya try.

[clintparks2]

Eric Church is one of the best singers in country music today. Call it how you want it, he makes songs come to life like he is telling you apart of his life!

[MICHgnftb2]

I thought my life was over when i blew my knee out senior year..but everything worked out great, i went to a different school and found the best girl ever! thank god i aint what i almost was!

[cropgrower95]
