Lewis Furey – What If lyrics
What if I were to lose my way?
What if the winds were to suddenly blow me away?
What if a tree were to fall on me?
A shadow swallow me?
What if the corner store is gone
And I disappear into a crazy song?
What if they got no chocolate ice cream?
Or will the grocer say is he going to laugh at me?
Will they think I'm not big enough?
Or say I'm not tough enough
To make my own way?
Little boy make your own way in the big, big world.
What if the price went up overnight
And momma said that it often does,
Wouldn't that be a sight?
And what if daddy didn't know it,
And the money were counterfeit?
Would they send me off to jail?
Will I have to take my tail between my legs and run?
What if? What if?
So many what ifs.
What if? What if?
Don't know about anything.
What if? What if?
Gotta know about everything.
Whoa whoa What if?
What if? What if?
So many what ifs.
What if? What if?
Don't know about anything.
What if? What if?
Gotta know about everything.
What if I really do have a friend?
And could I take his hand anytime?
Start back again?
Or is it just believing
My brother says Jacob's superheroes
Could save me now like again
Come to me now but no more lullabies.
Little bo peep lost her mother
Valley of the shadow little lamb
Sister too they love Peter Pan
When will love be an only
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la lullaby
What if everything turns out alright?
What if there are no orcs or goblins in the night?
What if I wake because my father squeezes
Momma on the butt she sneezes, ah-choo!
Go to sleep god bless you
Breezes gently
Little darling he's a lullaby
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Jacob, Jacob
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
What if the winds were to suddenly blow me away?
What if a tree were to fall on me?
A shadow swallow me?
What if the corner store is gone
And I disappear into a crazy song?
What if they got no chocolate ice cream?
Or will the grocer say is he going to laugh at me?
Will they think I'm not big enough?
Or say I'm not tough enough
To make my own way?
Little boy make your own way in the big, big world.
What if the price went up overnight
And momma said that it often does,
Wouldn't that be a sight?
And what if daddy didn't know it,
And the money were counterfeit?
Would they send me off to jail?
Will I have to take my tail between my legs and run?
What if? What if?
So many what ifs.
What if? What if?
Don't know about anything.
What if? What if?
Gotta know about everything.
Whoa whoa What if?
What if? What if?
So many what ifs.
What if? What if?
Don't know about anything.
What if? What if?
Gotta know about everything.

Ooh la la la la la lullaby
Ooh la la la la la lullaby
