If Something Should Happen Lyrics

If Something Should Happen lyrics

Buddy you and me go way back,

Camp Lejeune, all through highschool,

And before that

So I dont mind telling you I'm scared to death

The doctor's going in on the 25th

Its the same thing my daddy had

Thank God they caught it fast



But if something should happen,

Stop in sometime and say hello to Katherine

You and Mary Anne could always keep her laughing

She's going to need alot of that

Take her out to a movie

Its going to take some time before she's back on her feet

I know you think that I'll be fine and I'm talking crazy 

But there's always that chance,

That's whY im asking,

If something should happen



Little Nathan's growing up so fast

This november he'll turn 10

He wants to play quarterback

Im supposed to coach his team this fall

But i may not get to after all

Hes going to need someone to catch a pass

And to throw it back



If something should happen

Oh promise me you'll take that boy out camping

Throw a line out in that water every now and then

Answer any question that he has

Maybe when he gets older, 

You can sit and have that first cold beer together

And tell him a couple stories on his father

Hes always known you were my best friend

That's why im asking,

If something should happen



I hope i live until im 80

And i get to see my son get married

And have babies 

And make a million more memories with my wife

Yea buddy i pray aLright

But if its my time to leave

Would you watch over them for me?

If something should happen

If something should happen

mm hmm hmm
