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 TRYIN'
HE JUST WALKED AWAY
THERE WERE TEARDROPS
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 TRYIN'
HE JUST TURNED AWAY
AND THERE WERE
TEARDROPS
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 THE SCHOOLS
THE LAWYERS SAY
IT BREAKS THE RULES
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
CAN'T 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 TRYIN'
HE JUST TURNED AWAY
THERE WERE TEARDROPS
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
