It was a home run when the game was tied A pick up truck when I could drive One pink line when Katie said I'm late It was a passing grade, a pretty girl All the money in the world What mattered then kept changing every day [Chorus] But when I bow my head tonight There'll be no me myself and I Just watch my wife and kids please lord That's all I ask for any more Now a days it's crazy how A passing storm, a siren sound Can make me drop it all and pick up the phone To hear her say that all's okay is all I need to know these days Can't wait to see their faces when I get home [Chorus] Let 'em outlive me by a hundred years Let their laughter dry up all their tears Let 'em love and be loved back like I have been [Chorus] That's all that matters anymore
