esert Rose Band Walk On By by Chris Hillman/Alan Thornhill
with Tony Rice
& Al Perkins
If I were to lose it all tomorrow
End up on the dark side of the road
Brother would you stare at me in sorrow alone out in the cold
Hidden by the wayside you will find her
Standing in the shadows of hard times
It is said that there but for fortune brother go you or I walk on by
Pretend that you don't see her
Walk on by don't lend a helping hand
There's a cold wind blowing thru the heart and soul of every man
Walk on by
SOLO
Have we lost our sense of direction
Abandon all that we were led to believe
To lift those out of desperation helping the blind to see
Blessed is the child who lives for the other
Walks a mile or two in their shoes
Till the last heartbeat is forgotten
What are you gonna do walk on by
Pretend that you don't see her
Walk on by don't lend a helping hand
There's a cold wind blowing thru the heart and soul of every man
Walk on by
