Where in the World?
Writer: Sundi Jo Graham (BMI)

Verse One

He said, “Go back to the cotton fields where you belong.”
“There ain’t room here for people like you.”
Took a double take to make sure I heard him right
And met the evil in his eyes as I passed through

Chorus

Where in the world did the world go wrong?
Why’s a man judged by the color of his skin?
Underneath the hate don’t we all bleed the same?
Where in the world, where in the world did the world go wrong?

Verse Two

It was passed on to my grandpa and his grandpa too
That only one race mattered most
I thank God it skipped a generation of haunting me
I ain’t perfect, but I ain’t dancing with that ghost

Repeat Chorus

Verse Three

Heard a baby crying as I walked down the street
His innocence still intact
Said a little prayer that he would change the world
And never grow up and have to ask

Repeat Chorus

Underneath the hate don’t we all bleed the same?
Where in the world did the world go wrong?
