Atlanta 1979-1981
You scared me
When I was a boy 8-11
‘Cause boys went missing
And was led to believe
We lived close enough
That we should worry
Which wasn’t true
I see that now
But my heart
Bled with each report
With each missing boy
28 in total
It was the first time
I really cried out to God
Please save those boys
Please save those boys
Please save those boys
And I remember the news
One by one reporting
Body found
Body found
Body found
And I ached and ached
It was the first time
I asked God why
Why murder
Why kidnapping
Why Wayne Williams
Why pray
Why them
Why not me
Atlanta 1979-1981
You sacred me
When I was a boy 8-11
