Where Were You - Jack Prince
Lyrics by:Alan Jackson
Composed by:Alan Jackson
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
That September day
Were you in the yard with
Your wife and children
Or workin' on some stage in LA
Did you stand there in shock
At the sight of that black smoke
Risin' against that blue sky
Did you shout out in anger
In fear for your neighbor
Or did you just sit down and cry
Did you weep for the children
They lost their dear loved ones
Pray for the ones who don't know
Did you rejoice for the people
Who walked from the rubble
And sob for the ones left below
Did you burst out with pride for the red
White and blue
And the heroes who died just doin'
What they do
Did you look up to heaven
For some kind of answer
And look at yourself and what really matters
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN
But I'm not sure I can tell you
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith hope and love are some good things
He gave us
And the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
That September day
Teachin' a class full of innocent children
Or drivin' down some cold interstate
Did you feel guilty 'cause you're a survivor
In a crowded room did you feel alone
Did you call up your mother
And tell her you love her
Did you dust off that Bible at home
Did you open your eyes
And hope it never happened
Close your eyes and not go to sleep
Did you notice the sunset
For the first time in ages
And speak to some stranger on the street
Did you lay down at night
And think of tomorrow
Go out and buy you a gun
Did you turn off that violent old movie
You're watchin'
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns
Did you go to a church
And hold hands with some strangers
Stand in line to give your own blood
Did you just stay home
And cling tight to your family
Thank God you had somebody to love
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN
But I'm not sure I can tell you
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith hope and love are some good things
He gave us
And the greatest is love
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith hope and love are some good things
He gave us
And the greatest is love
And the greatest is love
And the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
On that September day
