Women Gather
Sweet Honey in the Rock

He was her only child, her baby boy

She was his second daughter, a father's pride and joy.

Somebody's mother, brother, best friend, sister, lover

Maybe an A-1 student running, hiding, taking cover.

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living,

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living

The women gather

People say, Not in this neighborhood!

It doesn't happen here!

Our kids have everything,

What do we have to fear?

But what about the ones who say, This happens every day;

Drugs and violence take our children.

How much more death can come our way?

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living,

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

it doesn't matter where you're living,

The women gather

Don't you know?

Some bullets find their targets

Bombs can take you right on cue

Some in the hands of babies

Or officials and their crew

Claimed the brother had a gun

She fit the profile in my book

Running, hiding, taking cover, didn't take the time to look

Somebody's mother, brother, best friend, sister, lover

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living,

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living

The women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living,

the women gather crying tears that fill a million oceans

It doesn't matter where you're living

It doesn't matter

It doesn't matter

It doesn't matter where you're living
