Where Was I Lyrics - Jerry Jeff Walker

Paul Thorn, Billy Maddox, Anna Lisa Graham 

On a black and white TV, in a dark saloon 

I was watching Neil Armstrong walking on the moon 

And later on I got high and climbed up on the bar 

I told everybody there I could fly above the stars 

I was in a Dallas disco the night that John Lennon died 

And the DJ played "Imagine" and everbody cried 

I remember a thousand lighters held up in our hands 

All we were saying them "Let's give peace a chance" 

Chorus: 

Where was I when you stopped loving me? 

When did I become history? 

There's not many things that escape my memory 

Tell me where was I when you stopped loving me? 

Every 20,000 years that comet lights up the night 

On a blanket we watched it sail across the sky 

A moment like that comes it just once in life 

It felt like our first time at 11:35 

Chorus 

Bridge: 

I remember when I met you, the taste of our first kiss 

I remember your goodbye, but would you tell me this? 

Chorus
