What If It Worked Like That Lyrics

What if we were old when we got here
Got a little younger every year
And we all laughed in the face of fear
Like it was nothing

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e88403-don_williams~what_if_it_worked_like_that_lyrics.html ]
What if we could all come in first place
Take our time without being late
Drink a few beers just to get in shape
Yeah, wouldn't that be something

What if it worked like that
What if this big old world didn't turn so fast
We took a little less and gave a little more back
Yeah, what if it worked like that

What if we had too many friends
Had more money than we could stand
And all the good times wouldn't end
They'd just keep on comin'

What if we could hug the ones we missed?
Clocking in meant catching fish
And all the pride and prejudice
Had to give into lovin'

What if it worked like that
What if this big old world didn't turn so fast
We took a little less and gave a little more back
Yeah, what if it worked like that

What if it worked like that
What if this big old world didn't turn so fast
We took a little less and gave a little more back
Yeah, what if it worked like that
