Jimmy Cliff - Where Did It Go? Lyrics

There was a song we used to sing
Whenever this life get us down
Then it would give us hope again
Help pull ourselves up from the ground

My body is achin'
My finger is shakin'
My will is breakin'
Nothing to ease the pain, no, ha

Where did it go, oh yeah?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go, oh yeah?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go
The song we used to sing, yeah?
Listen to me

What happened to the days we knew
And all the great things we could do?
Though we were young, we were so sure
We couldn't feel this insecure

'Cause we were strong
Couldn't go wrong
Wouldn't be long
To feel that happy song, no, ha

Where did it go, oh yeah?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go
The song we used to sing?
Tell me now

Where did it go, oh yeah?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go
The song we used to sing?

Ha ha, listen to me
There was a song we used to sing
(Used to sing)
Whenever this life get us down
(Get us down)

Then it would give us hope again
(Hope again)
Help pull ourselves up from the ground

My body is achin'
My fingers are shakin'
My will is breakin'
Nothing to ease the pain, pain, no

Where did it go, oh yeah
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go
The song we used to sing?
Tell me, people

Where did it go?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go?
(Where did it go?)
Where did it go?
