I watched him take the 2 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 to,
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 pa** the test
Give me the keys dad and get in
His father never drove again
That old man quit tryin'
He just turned away
There were teardrops on his face
Tell me how would you feel
You'd probably give up to,
if nobody believed you
They take his name out of schools
Lawyers say it breaks the rules
Pledge of Allegiance can be read
And Under God should not be said
I wonder how much he will take
I just pray its 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 to,
if nobody believed in you
Tell me how would you feel
You'd probably give up too,
if nobody believed in you
