- And I'm glad that there's some young folks out there, 'cause we wanna do one for the kids now.

(spectators cheering) It's kind of a sad song, but we're gonna play it anyway, 'cause we all gotta join together.

Here, I scribbled on the back, I carved on the back of my violin here, the names of six folks who, among 'em some third graders, who died in Nashville, Tennessee a few months ago in a school shooting that happened.

We just felt that we need to be singing about it, expressing some unity with the people that you love.

So we'd like to play a song for you now that we've been singing all across the country as we ask folks to meet in the middle and do the right thing for our kids and keep 'em safe from gun violence.
