Lyrics

I watched him take the two strike call He hadn't tried to swing at all I guess he had all he could take He walked away for goodness sake His father's voice was loud and mean "You won't amount to anything". That little boy quit trying He just walked away There were tear drops on his face Tell me how would you feel You'd probably give up too If nobody believed in you. That old man said, "One more try I know I'm not too old to drive I promise son, I'll do my best This time I'm gonna pass the test" "Give me the keys dad and get in" His father never drove again. That old man quit trying He just turned away There were tear drops on his face Tell me how would you feel You'd probably give up too If nobody believed in you. We take his name out of schools The lawyers say it breaks the rules Pledge of allegiance can not be read And under God should not be said I wonder how much he will take I just pray it's not too late. What if God quit trying He just turned away There were tear drops on his face Tell me how would you feel You'd probably give up too If nobody believed in you. Tell me how would you feel You'd probably give up too If nobody believed in you...
