The Road We Chose Lyrics - Terry Reid

Well there's so many statements 

And there's so many words 

Voices in the city 

That are screaming to be heard 

There's radicals and rascals 

Reasons to be heard 

Meanwhile back in Jimmy's city 

It's your turn 

Talk about children 

Talk about fame 

Talk about anything that'll cause you pain 

There's many in the cities 

And there's many little towns 

But there's always some kid 

That'll go talk it around 

I'm talking about Slim and Tommy 

Paul will do just what he wants to 

Talk about Dave's got a story 

Just tried to help 

But everybody really got to help themselves 

Down in Atlanta 

You can do what you do 

Back you can take a few on 

Soon as you can do 

And you can walk around with no shoes 

And you ask Mr Jones 

And he won't tell you the truth 

Back on the West Coast 

Everyday was much the same 

I'll tell you all 

The best thing that ever really happened 

Was to get up a band and get together again 

Seen it before 

You will see it again 

Is this the point of no return 

It's just the strange infraction 

Between lovers and friends 

Is this the road we chose 

Meanwhile back on the West Coast 

Everyday was much the same 

They tell you how the best thing that's ever really happened 

Was just to split up a band and get together again 

Seen it before 

You will see it again 

Is this the point of no return 

It's just the strange infraction 

Between lovers and friends 

Is this the road we chose 

Is this the road we chose 

Is this the road we chose 

This is the road we chose 

Well there's so many statements 

And there's so many words 

The voices in the city 

They all scream out to be heard 

There's radicals and rascals 

Reasons to be heard 

Meanwhile back in Jimmy's city 

Had to make sure that he's heard 

You could talk about children 

You could talk about fame 

Talk about anything that'll cause you pain 

While there's many cities 

And many little old towns 

But there's always some badass kid 

Go talk it around 

Meanwhile back on the West Coast 

Everyday it is the same 

They tell you how the best thing that's ever really happened 

Was just to split up a band and get together again 

Seen it before 

See it again 

It ain't the point of no return 

It's just the strange infraction 

Between lovers and friends 

Is this the road we chose 

I suppose so 

Is this the road we chose 

Is this the road we chose 

This is the road we chose 

Is this the road
