Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning) - The Country Dance Kings (乡村舞王)[00:00:00]
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'[00:00:10]
That September day [00:00:15]
Out in the yard with your wife and children[00:00:19]
Or workin' on some stage in L A [00:00:23]
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke[00:00:27]
Risin' against that blue sky [00:00:31]
Did you shout out in anger in fear for your neighbor [00:00:35]
Or did you just sit down and cry [00:00:40]
Did you weep for the children they lost their dear loved ones [00:00:44]
Pray for the ones who don't know [00:00:50]
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble[00:00:53]
And sob for the ones left below [00:00:58]
Did you burst out in pride for the red white and blue[00:01:01]
And heroes who died just doin' what they do [00:01:06]
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer[00:01:10]
And look at yourself and what really matters [00:01:15]
I'm just a singer of simple songs [00:01:20]
I'm not a real political man [00:01:24]
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you[00:01:28]
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran [00:01:33]
But I know Jesus and I talk to God [00:01:37]
And I remember this from when I was young:[00:01:41]
Faith hope and love are some good things He gave us[00:01:44]
And the greatest is love [00:01:50]
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'[00:01:55]
That September day [00:02:00]
Teachin' a class full of innocent children[00:02:03]
Or drivin' on some cold interstate [00:02:08]
Did you feel guilty cause you're a survivor [00:02:12]
In a crowded room did you feel alone [00:02:16]
Did you call up your mother and tell her you love her [00:02:19]
Did you dust off that Bible at home [00:02:24]
Did you open your eyes and hope it never happened [00:02:29]
Close your eyes and not go to sleep [00:02:35]
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages[00:02:38]
And speak to some stranger on the street [00:02:42]
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow [00:02:46]
Go out and buy you a gun [00:02:51]
Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watchin'[00:02:54]
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns [00:02:59]
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some stranger [00:03:02]
Stand in line to give your own blood [00:03:07]
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your famly [00:03:11]
Thank God you had somebody to love [00:03:15]
I'm just a singer of simple songs [00:03:21]
I'm not a real political man [00:03:26]
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you[00:03:29]
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran [00:03:34]
But I know Jesus and I talk to God [00:03:38]
And I remember this from when I was young:[00:03:42]
Faith hope and love are some good things He gave us[00:03:45]
And the greatest is love [00:03:51]
I'm just a singer of simple songs [00:03:55]
I'm not a real political man [00:03:59]
I watch CNN but I'm not sure I can tell you[00:04:02]
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran [00:04:07]
But I know Jesus and I talk to God [00:04:10]
And I remember this from when I was young:[00:04:14]
Faith hope and love are some good things He gave us[00:04:19]
And the greatest is love [00:04:23]
And the greatest is love [00:04:28]
And the greatest is love [00:04:32]
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'[00:04:38]
That September day[00:04:42]
