Wolf's Home Lyrics


Gord Downie Wolf's Home


Hey kids, wolf's home
He drops into his easy chair
Stares up out blank
Then bids his family come and gather' round his chair
Then clears his throat
No one knows quite to expect
Says 'Man's a god'
When he dreams and a beggar when he reflects

My life of get and get
Got more than most and yet
I didn't run
I didn't vanish when I was afraid
I never asked
How many out there
I only asked where are they

My life of get and get
I've got more than most and yet

I got great touch
I learnt to vanish when I was afraid
I don't know much
But I don't try not to try
I don't do what I hate

In my life of get and get
I've got more than most and yet
The love of heart and target
The stereo has started
All the brokenhearted
All I want is
The dearly departed
All the hurts I started
Young and old poor-hearted
All I want is
All I've been afforded
My life, my love distorted
It's its own reward but all I want is you

All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you
