Just turned five today
well he don't know it
no parties no birthday cakes
If anybody cares
they don't show it
he's out in the yard
playin' all alone
cause mommas on the bottle
and his daddys long gone
love don't even know his name
well if that don't get you
then nothin' will
if that don't leave you with a cold chill
if that don't bring a tear right to your eye
well if that don't make you
wanna grab a child
and love him like loves goin' out of style
watch him light up when they know
just how you feel
oh if that don't get you nothin' will
he stands by the interstate
I garantee you've seen him
I pass him by nearly everyday
because I don't work to support his drinkin'
but Sunday he was sittin' on the very first row
with some money in a sack wearin' worn out clothes
and he poured every penny into the offering plate
he said it ain't much but preacher I wanna change
and if that don't get ya nothin' will
if that don't leave you with a cold chill
if that don't bring a tear right to your eye
well if that don't make you wanna roll up your sleeve
and help somebody up off their knees
be right beside them when they
finally climb that hill
oh if that don't get you nothin' will
now baby since we've been apart
I've been seein' life differently
I won't take nothin else for granted
especially not you and me
so I've been prayin' for a second chance
rushed to make things right
because I can't live another day
without you in my life
and if that don't get you then nothin' will
if that don't leave you with cold chill
if that don't bring a tear straight to your eye
girl if that don't make you wanna run back home
fall in these arms where you belong
and let love cut right through our hearts of steel
oh if that don't get ya
girl if love don't get ya
oh if that don't get ya
nothin' will
oh nothin' will
