Eric Church – “Why Not Me” [Video and Lyrics]

Eric Church appeared at the Grand Ole Opry on October 4th and performed “Why Not Me”, a song he wrote in honor of the victims of the Las Vegas Shooting.

Lyrics to Eric Church’s “Why Not Me”

Why you with your long brown hair flowin’
And you with your fresh tattooed skin
And your from the western Virginia
That you’ll never get to see again

As darkness descended the desert
And a bad actor started in his play
Why you from Tennessee did life capture
And me from Tennessee get away

And when the morning sun hits the mountain
And a glorious still calmed the breeze
I asked the God of all-knowing wisdom
Why you and why not me

Yeah the lord is my refuge and fortress
my God whit whom I trust
But I’ll never know why the wicked
Guess to pray on the best of us
Why you full of life and promise
At the top of your lounge so loud
My songs that you sang so sweetly will ring
And my ears Forever now

And when the morning sun hits the mountain
And a glorious still calmed the breeze
I asked the God of all-knowing wisdom
Why you and why not me

And every morning when the sun hits the Mountain
And the glories still calms the breeze
I’ll ask the God of my salvation
Why you and why not me
Why you and why not me
