Now if you load your rifle right
And if you fix your bayonet so
And if you kill that man, my friend
The one we call the foe
And if you do it often lad
And if you do it right
You'll be a hero overnight
You'll save your country from a fight
Remember God is always right
If you survive to see the sight
A friend now greeting foe
No you won't believe in If anymore
If's an illusion
If's an illusion
No you won't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams
If I knew then what I know now
(I thought I did you know somehow)
If I could have the time again
I'd take the sunshine leave the rain
If only time would trickle slow
Like rain that melts the fallen snow
If only Lord if only
If only Lord if only
Oh I don't believe in If anymore
If's an illusion
If's an illusion
No I don't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams
No I don't believe in If anymore
It's an illusion
It's an illusion
No I don't believe in If anymore
If is for children
If is for children
Building daydreams
It is amazing to me to see how many of us listened to this in the living room with our parents. This and other Whittaker songs send me right back to those times. Thanks for posting this.
"If only" I could go back and hear this for the first time again . . . He has been one of my favorite singers for decades now, and this is one of his best songs. Bravo, Roger!
