For the Kids - John Rich

There’s a little girl

And she’s in for the fight of her life

Only six years old

Facing down the future, no fear in her eyes

Her mamma and daddy are praying down on their knees

For a miracle in Memphis

Lord won’t you help them please

For the kids, we’d trade all our tomorrows

And for the kids, we’d give our heart and souls

‘Cause they’re the heroes of our lives

Fighting to survive

So give all you can give

For the kids

And there’s a little boy

And he’s sittin' in his daddy’s lap

He smiles and laughs

And covers his head in a St. Jude ballcap

It’s been a long battle but he’s gonna beat the odds

He’s gonna make it outta there ‘cause people care

And by the grace of God

For the kids, we’d trade all our tomorrows

And for the kids, we’d give our heart and souls

‘Cause they’re the heroes of our lives

Fighting to survive

So give all you can give

For the kids

And I sing for the ones

Whether far or near

We’ve got to lift

So we can give that all the world may hear

Music in their ears

For the kids, we’d trade all our tomorrows

And for the kids, we’d give our heart and souls

‘Cause they’re the heroes of our lives

Fighting to survive

So give all you can give

You gotta give all you can give

For the kids

Yeah, for the kids
