What's In The News (R.Perry, S. Jenkins) BMI ©2005
Performed at "Otherland's" In Memphis TN
Steve Jenkins- Vocals
Rob Perry - Guitar
This is a song Steve and I did in a show that had John Kilzer (Geffen Records) and Andy Tanas (Black Oak Arkansas and Krokus)
So when you get a chance
Won't you say a little prayer for me
I'll know that I'll be fine
But I'm as blue as a boy can be
Because I was down on the corner
And I saw the headlines today
Too much law and disorder
Was what the papers had to say
Ann old man killed some girl
Who was breaking into his house
A 3 year old got shot
Because his Dad left his handgun out
(Chorus)
And your gone baby your gone
And I just can't seem to make sense of it all
Gone wrong
It all seemed perfectly clear
Darling when you were here
But your gone
And thats whats in my news today
So when you get a chance
Will you light a little candle for peace
To stop the bloodshed and violence
Thats lining our citiy streets
Whenever I get the chance
I always hit my knees
Pray to God for consolation
And for you to be here with me
Even though your gone...
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Its a crazy little world we live in
But it always seemed sane
When you were my girl
But you're gone
And thats whats in my news today
