Where You're Going Lyrics - Do You Believe Me Now - Jimmy Wayne

When I was in college my class went on a trip 

To a place down the road where the county kept delinquent kids 

An old man with a badge said to the class 

"And here we have all kinds of trash" 

I could not believe what I just heard 

At first I wasn't gonna say a word 

It's not where you been, it's where you're going 

It's not who you were back then, it's who you are at this moment 

Kinda like looking at an old photograph, remembering way back when 

It's not where you been, it's where you're going 

I said, "Excuse me, sir, I know you won't remember me 

But try to imagine how I looked when I'd just turned 15 

Defiant, scared and confused, dirty clothes and tattoos 

With nothing really left to lose, you see the last door on the right? 

Sir, that door used to be mine" 

It's not where you been, it's where you're going 

It's not who were back then, it's who you are at this moment 

Kinda like looking at an old photograph, remembering way back when 

It's not where you been, it's where you're going 

We all have a story we can tell 

Some's been lost, some hurt, some of us have been through hell 

Well, the past is a ghost, a door that's been closed 

The start of a winding road and I know without a doubt 

That doesn't matter now 

It's not where you been, it's where you're going 

It's not who you were back then, it's who you are at this moment 

Kinda like looking at an old photograph, remembering way back when 

Oh yeah, it's not where you been, no, it's not where you've been 

It's where you're going 

It's where you're going, it's where you're going
