I Wonder Who
© JD Carroll /Creative Ventures Music / ASCAP
I wonder who is getting shot today?
I sure hope it's not me.
I wonder who is gonna crumble today
from all the pain and grief?
I wonder whose Mamas gonna cry today
when her son doesn't come home
I sure don't want to die today
and I know I'm not the only one.
Chorus
There must be some solution
We're not all knuckleheads
We have to stop all this killing
before we all end up dead.
We're all gonna end up dead
I wonder who is gonna hate today
enough to take a life
I hope I don't get caught inside
another senseless fight.
I wonder if we can ever get back
to just getting along.
I wish we could all just take a breath
and sing a different song.
Chorus
There must be some solution
We're not all knuckleheads
We have to stop all this killing
before we all end up dead.
We're all gonna end up dead
I'm afraid to go out there now
even down to the corner store
I can't stop who will be driving by
shooting wildly out that door
I wish I had myself a safety shield
or better yet a gun
I sure don't want to die today
and I know I'm not the only one.
Chorus
There must be some solution
We're not all knuckleheads
We have to stop all this killing
before we all end up dead.
We're all gonna end up dead
