Wake Up America Lyrics - Darryl Worley - Darryl Worley

Wake up America I got a problem something you may not believe 

There is poison in the darkness spreading like a bad disease 

I never thought I'd find myself in this condition 

Sitting by while children die from their addictions 

I'm just a small town I have no tongue to speak 

I have no arms to hold them as their dying in my streets 

So I have to wonder does any body care 

Lord is there any hope out there? 

Wake up America I got a problem, venom flowing through my veins 

I see families torn to pieces by crystal meth and crack cocaine 

If some of those sworn to provide us with protection 

Just turn their backs and cut a deal with the infection 

I'm just a small town I have no tongue to speak 

I have no arms to hold them as their dying in my streets 

So, I have to wonder does any body care 

Lord is there any hope out there? 

All those years I gave them peaceful sanctuary 

Now I'm a grave yard where the innocent are buried 

I'm just a small town I have no tongue to speak 

I have no arms to hold them as their dying in my streets 

So I have to wonder does any body care 

Lord is there any hope out there? 

Lord is there any hope out there? 

Oh is there any hope out there? 

Wake up America I got a problem, I got a problem 

Like venom flowing through my veins
