    This is a bluesy rocker in the Stevie Ray Vaughan style. Lots of guitar solos and a happening Hammond B3 solo in the intro.

    Story Behind the Song
    I'd been wanting to write a song about the
    wave of violence in our schools for some time. When I came up with the guitar riff I
    kind of knew this was going to be it. It's a touchy subject and I wanted to express how I felt about it without getting too heavy and distracting the listener from that fact that this is still just a rock and roll album. I think the song gets the point across lyrically and musically.

    Lyrics
    There ain't nothing you can tell me
    Ain't no way to make me see
    There ain't no way you can tell me
    This is the way it had to be

    Now just look at what has happened
    Now just tell me what you've done
    Babies are killing our babies
    Ain't got nowhere to run

    How could you think this is the only
    Way that we could hear you cry
    You're feeling pain, you're feeling lonely
    But that don't mean they had to die

    And I'm crying for the love you're not feeling
    And I'm crying for the pain that you caused
    And everyone knows, all the world can see
    This killing time is killing me

    So mamas sit down with your babies
    Love them any way you can
    I've got to believe we can turn this thing around
    And learn to live hand in hand

    'Cause I'm crying for the love you're not feeling
    And I'm crying for the pain that you caused
    And everyone knows, all the world can see
    This killing time is killing me
