Buddy you and me go way back
Camp Lejeune, all through high school and before that.
So I don't mind tellin' you I'm scared to death.
The doctor is goin' in on the 25th
It's the same thing my daddy had
Thank God they caught it fast.

But if somethin' should happen
Stop in some time and say hello to Catherine
You and Marianne could always keep her laughing
Because she's gonna need a lot of that
Take her out to a movie
It's gonna take sometime before she's back on her feet.
I know you think I'll be fine and I'm talkin' crazy
But there's always that chance
That's why I'm askin'
If something should happen

Little Nathan is growing up so fast
This November he'll turn 10
He wants to play quarterback.
I'm supposed to coach his team this fall
But I may not get to afterall
He's gonna need someone to catch a pass
And to throw it back

If something should happen
Oh promise me you'll take that boy out campin'
Throw a line out in the water every now and then
Answer and questions 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 your my best friend.
That's why I'm askin'
If something should happen

I hope I live until I'm eighty
And I get to see my son get married
And have some babies
And make a million more memories with my wife.
Yeah buddy I pray alright
But if it's my time to leave
Could you watch over them for me?

If something should happen x6
