This Is Where I Get Off

  • The Earth keeps on shaking but I'm standing still
    The chances I'm taking against my will
    When we made it to the top we watched it fall, couldn't stop
    But everything you leave behind catches up in another time

    So just pull over to the side of the road
    This is where I get off
    This is where I move on

    I know where I went wrong along the way
    Along the way

    Walking out on the boys was never the plan
    We drifted off course couldn't strike up the band
    We'd been working the graveyard shift, I wonder do you catch my drift
    This was trouble in the making, but it's a risk well worth taking

    So just pull over to the side of the road
    This is where I get off
    This is where I move on

    I know where I went wrong along the way, oh

    This is where I get off
    This ain't where I belong
    Somebody done me wrong, along the way
    Along the way

    So just pull over to the side of the road
    This is where I get off
    This is where I move on
    I know where I went wrong along the way
    This is where I get off
    This ain't where I belong
    Somebody done me wrong
    Along the way, along the way
    Along the way, along the way
    Along the way Writer/s: Robbie Robertson
