'Have You Forgotten?' lyrics

Verse
I hear people saying we don't need this war

I say there's some things worth fighting for

What about our freedom and this piece of ground

We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down

They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in

Before you start your preaching let me ask you this my friend

(sheryl crow wearing protest shirt at American Music Awards)

Chorus

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?

To see your homeland under fire

And her people blown away

Have you forgotten when those towers fell?

We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell

And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

Verse

They took all the footage off my T.V.

Said it's too disturbing for you and me

It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say

If it was up to me I'd show it everyday

Some say this country's just out looking for a fight

After 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right

Chorus

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?

To see your homeland under fire

And her people blown away

Have you forgotten when those towers fell?

We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell

And you vow to get the ones behind bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

Bridge

I've been there with the soldiers

Who've gone away to war

And you can bet that they remember

Just what they're fighting for

Chorus 3

Have you forgotten all the people killed?

Some went down like heros in that Pennsylvania field

Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?

All the loved ones that we lost and those left to carry on

Don't you tell me not to worry about bin Laden

Have you forgotten?

Tag

Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten?

Steve Warren, who consults for about 40 country radio stations, wouldn't have applauded. "Singing a song about going to war with Saddam because bin Laden hit us is a leap of logic that I don't think any informed people outside the White House can make," Warren says. "I wouldn't play the thing, no matter how many requests I got for the sucker."

Gee, I'm so glad the radio stations are hiring people so much smarter than myself to decide what I should listen to. I guess I'm too uninformed to realize that connecting Saddam to terrorists threatening the lives of our citizens is an incredible "leap of logic". Radio consultant? What kind of BS job is that? Any station manager who hires this idiot is an even bigger idiot.

Excellent presentation, BTW.

great job. only suggestion for a future revision, a good picture of a jumper for the "living hell" line. But this is outstanding just the way it is.

And I agree with him when he says that we should still be seeing the planes slamming into the WTC more frequently.

A) That's a great song - catch it if you can.

B) Typical headline mischaracterization by the liberal media

C) Nice photo-montage.

may seem to equate Saddam Hussein with Osama bin Laden

And whats wrong with that? Saddam supports terrorists, including Al Qaida and OBL. He would have done what OBL did if he could. He tried to kill our first President Bush. Seems pretty similar to OBL to me.

Darryl Worley's cd "Have You Forgotten" is due in stores in May. I expect the release date will be bumped up due to the success of the single.

Consultant Steve Warren is, I'm sure, nothing more than a failed program director. Most of them are. He's clueless when it comes to understanding a Country audience. Since we first debuted the song a week ago, "Have You Forgotten" has been the most requested song on my station.

Very unusual for a country/western music lover to be anti American. Almost every person I talk to who loves country music is patriotic. It fits hand in glove. mr ferret ooops warren needs to study a few fair and balanced reports and try to understand what is really happening.

Great work!

Actually the guy deserving credit for getting Darryl Worley's song message out to the nation is Phil Valentine, a Nashville talk show host. He started playing the dsong a few weeks ago and sent it on to Sean Hannity.

I hope more people hear the song and see this moving pictorial account of lyrics.
