Victor Wainwright & The WildRoots Walk Away My Blues lyrics

When opposing views collide, blow up in your face.
Crazy people screamin' and shoutin' all over the place, and tell you what to do and who you should be. [That don't get it with me]
I put on my walkin' shoes and do what comes naturally. [Listen to me]

Turn around walk away I don't hear what they say.
Turn around walk away take it easy for a change.
Turn around start walkin', walk away my blues.

I won't live inside a prison, built by society,
Where everybody's got your number and I want my privacy!
I won't abide by rude behavior, people talking out the sides of their mouth
(That I can do without)
I've got a little secret, I'm taking me a different route [there ain't no doubt]

Turn around walk away I don't hear what they say.

Turn around walk away take it easy for a change.
Turn around start walkin', walk away my blues.

It's so sad to bear witness, to those lost in the dark
Lighten up your life, take a stroll through the park
Avoid all the confusion, and leave all your troubles behind
(Change your state of mind)

Put one foot in front the other…..move on down the line

Chorus out…
