Walk Our Own Road Lyrics

Walk Our Own Road lyrics

(Bernie Nelson/Lisa Palas)

 

 There's do'ers and don'ters and I wills and won'ters

 and them, that don't even try

 Givers and takers, movers and shakers

 And them that are just passing by

 

 Skidrows and winos and some folks that I know

 That don't do like I think they should

 I thought they were livin' their lifes all wrong

 Long, before I understood

 

 We all have to walk our own road

 We can't always go where we're told

 In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows

 But we all have to walk our own road

 

 I've had some good times and I've had a good life

 And I've had things goin' my way

 I've walked the highground and treasures that I've found

 An' women who brightened my day

 

 Then there were times I was caught in the crosswinds

 With life - goin' 'round and around

 Like a ship with no sail I was caught in a gale

 Til I fin'ly just ran it a-ground

 

 We all have to walk our own road

 We can't always go where we're told

 In the end where it'll end up - the Lord only knows

 But we all have to walk our own road
