Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the music video Mean Mary singing and playing banjo "Where Were You" on a train.
"Newest song - I just wrote. It was originally going to be a banjo instrumental but before I got started on the idea some words came to me and it sort of took a life of it's own."

"Where Were You" written by Mary James
Lyrics
"where were you
You say I’ve aged just like cherry wine
And you wanna press your drunken lips on mine
Well forbidden fruit tastes sweet when you are young
You don’t care about the pain until the bee has stung

(Chorus)
Where were you when I was calling
Where were you when I was naïve
Where were you when I was falling
Gentle like the dogwood leaves
Where were you when I was simple
Where were you when I was kind
Pulling up the wildflowers for you
Where were you when I was blind

What happened to that girl who played with fireflies
Always looking up to you with her heart in her eyes
Well it only takes one shot to fear a gun
And few drops of sweat can make you dread the sun
Dread the burning sun

(Chorus)

Where were you . . ."
