Nanci Griffith - Our Very Own lyrics

(Nanci Griffith - Keith Carradine) We don't live on easy street, but it's home Looking out on the open road, where you'll go it alone To the last of our simple days, we'll wave good-bye Down this road we're grown It's Our Very Own This is not a one-horse town, we're not alone It's somewhere off the beaten track, we're loyal to the bone Everybody's got their place, and got their role to play We should never change our rules 'Cause it's our very own Youth is but a breath in time A cruise around the square You swore you'd never be your folks And suddenly you're there You think you'll choose a different road Than the one that you've been shown But in the end we're in the square And it's our very own We don't live on easy street, but it's home Looking out on the open road, where you'll go it alone To the last of our simple days, we'll wave goodbye Down this road we've grown It's Our Very Own Come December Come what may We'll recall our simple days And we'll always know They were our very own
