  • We were sitting 'round the table
    At the Tuesday poker game
    Solvin' all the problems of the world
    Tryin' to draw an inside straight
    And Jimmy posed the question
    As he played a pair of kings
    "If you could be anyone in this whole world
    Who would you be
    Would you be Elvis, shaking up Memphis
    Making all the young girls scream
    Would you make a speech that would
    Change the world like Martin Luther King
    Go down in history like Abe Lincoln
    'Cause you set a country free
    If you could be anyone in this holw world
    Tell me, who would you be"
    Hank said, "I'd be a cowboy
    Someone like John Wayne"
    Johnny said, "Hey pilgrim
    Blow that cigar smoke the other way"
    Said he'd make a million dollars
    Pitchin' in the major leagues
    Then he stared straight into
    Paul's bloodshot eyes and said
    "Who would you be
    Would you be John Lennon
    Can you imagine giving hope with just a song
    Would you be the Babe, pointin' that bat
    Saying, "This one's going long"
    Maybe Moses, partin' the waters
    Saying, "Children follow me"
    If you could be anyone in this whole world
    Tell me, who would you be"
    I knew those boys would roll their eyes
    When they heard what I had to say
    But I shuffled the cards and said, "Deuces wild"
    And I told them anyways
    I'd be a father who had all the answers
    To every question my kids had
    I'd learn every word on that coffee cup
    That said, "World's Greatest Dad"
    Be a perfect husband to that woman
    Who means everything to me
    If I could be anyone in this whole world
    That's who I'd be
    Yeah, that's who I'd be
