[Verse 1]
Lord, release my hands
I have joined a rock 'n' roll band
And it's put me on the road
Away from everyone I know

[Chorus]
I could tell you that it's easy
But that wouldn't be the truth
If you ever need to call me
Well, you know, there's walking proof

[Verse 2]
Well, I heard him bang that drum
Something burning and something numb
Little brother, come with me
It's 2 a.m. in Boise

[Chorus]
I could tell you that it's easy
But that wouldn't be the truth
If you ever need to call me
Well, you know, there's walking proof

[Verse 3]
Elliot, the world gets scary
And words get heavy, and girls get mean
I've seen dark shadows in back lounges
Hearts just soaking in kerosene
[Chorus]
I could tell you that it's easy
But that wouldn't be the truth
If you ever need to call me
Well, you know, there's walking proof
