This song speaks to identity. I grew up in place where a little white church was the centre of our farming community. I think whether you come from the country or the city, people are always trying to understand where they come from and who they are. Rebellious rhythms permeate throughout this song.

Lyrics

Who You Are
Johnny P. Johnson

There’s a little white church out in the country
For years it stood straight and tall
People come and go through its doorways
Trying to make sense of it all

There’s a big cathedral in the city
With steeples that rise to the sky
People come and go through its archways
Asking questions why

Do you ever wonder who you are
Do you really care
Do you every wonder where you came from
Now would you like to go back there
Take me back there now

Well is there a place where money doesn’t matter
If there is then I want to go there
People care more about others
And there’s always a good feeling in the air

Do you ever wonder who you are
Do you really care
Do you ever wonder where you came from
Now would you like to go back there
Take me back there now

I want to know where I came from
Want to know where I belong
I want to know who the writer is of this song
I want to know where I’m going
Want to know where I’ve been
I want to know who created original sin

Do you ever wonder who you are
Do you really care
Do you ever wonder where you came from
Now would you like to go
I say would you like to go
I say would you like to go back there

Want to go back there now
Want to go back there
Who you are
