(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
