All I Ask for Anymore Lyrics

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 passin' grade, a pretty girl
All the money in the world
What mattered then kept changin' every day

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 anymore

Nowadays it's crazy how
A passin' storm or 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

And 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 anymore

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

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 anymore
That's all that matters anymore
