Out in the yard with your wife and your children
Working on some stage in LA
Did you stand there in shock at the site of
The black smoke rising against the 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
Who lost their dear loved ones
and pray for those who don't know
Did you rejoice fpr the people who walked from the rubble
And sob for the ones left below
Did you burst out in pride
For the red white and blue
The heroes who died just doing what they do
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer
And look at yourself to what really matters
I'm Just a singer of simple songs
I'mnot a real political man
I watch CNN but im not sure I can tell you
The difference in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
I remember this from when I was young
Faith hope and love are some good things He gave us
But the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stopped turning on that September day
Teaching a class full of innocent children
Driving down some cold interstate
Do you feel guilty cause you're a survivor
In a crowded room do 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 happpened
Close your eyes and not go to sleep
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages
Speak with some stranger on the street
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow
Go out and buy a gun
Did you turn off tht violent movie you're watching
And turn on "I love lucy" reruns
Did you go to church and hold hand with 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 lover
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 difference 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 Real sure I can tell you
The difference in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And i remember this from when I was youn
Faith hope and lover are some good things he gave us
And the greatest is love
The greatest is love
The greatest is love
