lyrics

You look at the pictures
of lives of better men
The perfect times and places
you wish that you had been
But you don't see
Oh, you don't see

The women by closed doors
or the empty rooms behind
The feet that crushed the flowers
or the sour tasting wine'
You don't see
Oh, you don't see

Walk down your own road,
Walk down your own road,
You're gonna live a long time

Walk down your own road,
Walk down your own road,
You're gonna live a long time

You dream of the road
following white lines
Dirty bars and freight train cars
your innocence again
But you don't see
Oh, you don't see

The family left behind
or the dirty train yard fights
The whiskey through your liver
or those lonely sleepless nights
You don't see
Oh, you don't see

Walk down your own road,
Walk down your own road,
You're gonna live a long time

Walk down your own road,
Walk down your own road,
You're gonna live a long time

Great Elk New York

The New Yorker says - “The Brooklyn rockers Great Elk display the control and restraint of a band with deep chemistry, as they sway gracefully between gentle ballads and mid-tempo indie-rock tunes.”

That's cool.
