If Something Should Happen

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 I'm 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
 He's 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 once he gets older,
 You can sit and have that first cold beer together
 And tell him a couple stories on his father
 He's always known you were my best friend
 That's why im asking,
 If something should happen
 I hope I live until I'm 80
 And I get to see my son get married
 And have babies
 And make a million more memories with my wife
 Yeah 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
