How the Lord Helped Me Rewrite a Troublesome Line In “Regretting What I Said”
Christine Lavin
[Outro]
Thanks a lot
You know, I know some of you have noticed
There's a lyric change in that song
'Cause originally, I wrote it a long time ago
And um, and I had, there was a line was, where I said
"I hope the plane explodes in mid-air
As it carries you away from me"
And there were so many weird things
Happening around the world
I thought, "Oh, that's, that's too scary
I just can't sing that in the song anymore"
So I was actually sitting on an airplane thinking
What can I sing that's horrible but not life-threatening
That can happen to you on an airplane?
And just then
The flight attendant spilled scalding hot coffee
On the lap of the man next to me
I said, "Thank you, Jesus"
That really happened!
Mmm
