Green Day - Christie Road Lyrics
Staring out of my window
Watching the cars go rolling by
My friends are gone
I've got nothing to do
So I sit here patiently
Gotta get away
Or my brains will explode
Give me something to do to kill some time
Take me to that place that I call home
Take away the strains of being lonely
Take me to the tracks at Christie Road
See the hills from afar
Standing on my beat up car
Now I feel like me once again
As the train comes rolling in
Smoked my boredom gone
Slapped my brains up so high
Give me something to do to kill some time
Take me to that place that I call home
Take away the strains of being lonely
Take me to the tracks at Christie Road
Mother stay out of my way of that place we go
We'll always seem to find our way to Christie Road
Mother stay out of my way of that place we go
We'll always seem to find our way to Christie Road
If there's one thing that I need
That makes me feel complete
So I go to Christie Road
It's home...

Green Day Christie Road Comments
Does Green Day still perform Kerplunk songs, live?
I cheated on my boyfriend, one year, with a dude that loved green day, and kind of reminded me of Billie Joe. The dude ended up giving me a Kerplunk CD. If I never cheated, I would have never found out about Kerplunk, and how awesome green day was even before Dookie came out .
Ok..enough confessions tonight! LOL
Just realized this song is about Meth.
Am I that stupid ??? It took me 25 years .
Now I feel like me once again..."

Awesome album to tweek to Believe me I do trust him when he’s driving around with his friend ~ Julie to Christy
Kerplunk,Doookie it;s punk rock history clasic.. for my person it's a sentiment..old really punk rock ...old remember
best kerplunk song
Billy Joe Armstrong was a better songwriter than most people give him credit for . Sure you can write off the whole genre of pop punk as merely adolescent cheese but he does a very good job at expressing these universal feelings of teenagers , too bad rock music is not very popular or culturally relevant at the moment .. but stuff like this needs a comeback ..... Gold Teeth and Fake chains does not represent me .. When i was still young this music did
This would have made a great 3rd single, if this album did singles back then.
I found this tape at a record store in Monroeville Mall randomly (I'm not even from there) before anybody knew who Green Day was.
I don't know why I bought it, it just looked cool.
Played it on the drive home and was blown away.
This is how it felt like when there was no instagram and youtube
I do/did the same thing for years, hung out at Christie Rd., smoke a little, wait for & watch the trains as the afternoon slowly turned to night out there in the oak tree & grassy hilled countryside off Highway 4. Just me, the cows, & the occasional freight train. Only recently did I learn about this song. So I think this is very cool. One of the ranches has been converted to an open space park a couple years ago so you can walk up into the hills, but be careful of ticks!
Hanging out with the boys... It is 11pm, we are sitting close to some railways drinking some beer and listening to the music from the clubs nearby... Good ol' times back then
2:03 smells like teen spirit
Pure garbage
I'm younger than most people here, but I still grew up on this album.
i was born in 1991 mawfukas and im listening to this song ! \m/ , my mom used to listen to greenday in the 80s , and i got aholda her casset tapes of DOOKIE greenday when i was 5 years old and been hooked since !
We used to cover this spin back in the mid 90’s. those days were all about skat’in, partying, girls and music. Fucking miss those days.
everyone thinks dookie is green days first album.
When its actually 39/Smooth. Technically there are some eps from when they were sweet children but I haven't been able to find them to listen to.
Old times. Fun times.
Yeah...
Green Day fan from Kuwait 🇰🇼
And Ukraine :)
This will always be the best Green Day song to me.
We'll always seem to find our way to Christie Road
Listening from 2019... i love green day..
know that feeling
the best song !!!
I'm no longer much of a green day fan anymore as I used to be, but this song is still great
Wow in the newer live version he's way better
Music is my religion
Got this CD for $5 out of curiosity after dookie became popular. Money well spent. By far my favorite green day CD.
Green Day and Offspring early 90s
will always remind me of one of my first hangovers, aged 15
Kerplunk is the illmatic of punk music
Q T ouvir isso, nesse mundo de hoje!
Only true green day fans
Unless it's a fan who's new. When I first got into green day it took me like four months to even find Longview (mainly because I was using YouTube) but hey, you never know.
The best drug Is music agreed and I fucking love this song and young Billie Joe.
Does Green Day still perform Kerplunk songs, live?
I cheated on my boyfriend, one year, with a dude that loved green day, and kind of reminded me of Billie Joe. The dude ended up giving me a Kerplunk CD. I played that CD probably 100 times in my car! If I never cheated, I would have never found out about Kerplunk, and how awesome green day was even before Dookie came out . I eventually had to break up with the boyfriend..lol. He is happily married today.
Ok..enough confessions tonight! LOL
Jenny Lee girl eye-
Best song of the album
i born in the wrong generation,i love this album and others from GD and more bands from the 90's or 80's,70's and 60's,the music of today is totally crap!
LOVE THIS ONE
music is subjective...but not greenday
If you like smells like teens spirit, go listen to it go away man don’t break the mood we’re having fun here
The breakdown part always gives me this crazy feeling. Its just something about billies voice or the melody just gives me goosebumps!!!!! Also i love how all the old green day albums are about growing up and becoming an adult. Something that we can all relate to.
Im just here cause Adam the Woo talked about it in his last video.
Great excellent
Hands down!! They're best album. Dookie is simply a polished version of this.
Omg I understand what he is singing, how did that happen 😂?
Best song from Kerplunk.
Brain going into nostalgic meltdown..
2:04 Sounds like nirvana
Reminds me of Nirvana somehow...
this was released before Smells Like Teen Spirit, they even played it live before that song came out, yes and the riff sounds somewhat the same later in the song
My favourite green day album is it doesn’t matter what i say because who the fuck cares BUT it sure as hell isnt 39/ Smooth because for fucks sake it objectively sucks. Warning is my favourite bye
The amount of mids is amazing.
Take me to that place that I call home
i would give up anything for being born at that generation
from 2:03 it's sounds like nirvana........smells like you know.........
- SlothYnDash A little bit.
Staring out of my window
So many memories
I was like # 2000 😎
Legendary
only grunge sound that green day has released
this was green day, this
Love when he says take me to Christie road or whatever I love it man!!!!!
Green day is a freaking awesome band.
Green day is my favorite band
I fucking love this song. Proud to wear this album cover artwork as a tat.
2:04. Smells like teens spirit???
this song was played way before green day was famous/smells like teen spirit was released. Not to mention that nothing is original anymore.. yea it is similar but who actually gives a damn, just enjoy the great music
this was released before smells like teen spirit
2:08 that sounds alot like smells like teen spirit
this song was played way before green day was famous/smells like teen spirit was released. Not to mention that nothing is original anymore.. yea it is similar but who actually gives a damn, just enjoy the great music
this was released before smells like teen spirit
fuck dislike
This is gold
Fun Fact: Outlaws from Revolution Radio is considered the spiritual sequel to this song
You’ve peaked my interest...
hope kids these day listen to the music like this
15 years kid here
just turned 12, and pop-punk and other types of rock is what is the only thing i listen too.
@MBTAGuy1500 nice man, we have a long time to discover and listen to different types of music ;)
I'm 15 & love green day 🤘🖤🦄
15 here, i listen to them
2:03 Sounds like Smells like teen spirit? or it is just me?
FirstDD this was released before smells like teen spirit
Not trying to be pessimistic or anything. but God I fucking miss the 90's. There wasn't as much of the bullshit we have today
I always think at about 2:10 I'm listening to smells like teen spirit.
creations of my own bored mind 121 this was released before smells like teen spirit
easily one of my favourite green day songs. hadn't listened to it until they played it live at the o2 when I saw them
Green Day is timeless. One of the only bands which keep on making awesome music
soda stereo-de musica ligera sounds like the guitar at this
What is up with the comments? Like every second is like "my generation is shit" or "Green Day nowadays sucks". Just listen to the damn Song and let People hear what they want.
I've got teenage rampage?

I've got super into this album
i grew up with greenday
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA yeah, I didn't grow up with this music but I can still listen to it as if I did
Me too, but I still am growing up (I'm 11)
Quick story time:
When I was about 8 on the way to school they were playing a few songs off warning on the radio. I heard Minority and Church on Sunday, and after that I was hooked. To this day whenever I blast Minority I get kind of transported to another point in time
been listening green day more than 10 years...time flies
Lucky you....
Lucky... I got into them this past summer and I am now totally obbsesed with them
im a big rap fan. but i also like metal, rock and country
then, why are you here?
kerplunk is such a good album I want to cry.
this is so depressing tbh
Yeah i remember that spot this hick dude wanted to beat my cause he thought i was tryin to get his girl but thats a cool spot
This song is so awesome!
Excelent Ballads of the band
i can listen this song over and over again while looking out of my window..
♡♡♡♡
Dream song
Second part kinda sounded like smells like teen spirit for a sec
Leo it does
@C R The first recording of Teen Spirit came out in like 89 or 90
@pingpong trivia no it didn’t
@C R it was like like late 1990, he had recorded a demo of it on one of his aunt's devices.
@pingpong trivia that’s not “coming out”
kerplunk pra sempre!
This song was wrote for his first girlfriend Erica Paleno.. Christie Road is where the couple would sneak out to and meet at.
Hugh Mungus whatever floats your boat man. Sounds like a bunch of commercialized poop to me
roarface1993 you are a bunch of commercialized shit
I passed Chrustie Rd. today and thought of this song. LOL
Lol I read in an article that it was where Mike and Billie would go and smoke.

@maluorno you mean krusty road,
Or Christie Rd? Lol
*When someone says they "Like all different kinds of music" Do they really actually like music at all?*
Mostly when Someone recommends a track i'll listen it, to Give it a chance thuis way you Learn to appreciate New music, even if it is out of your comfort zone. I listen everythibg I like and that happens to be Mostly punk metal and rock....
Char exactly thank you
I mean i listen to punk rock and swing music... sooo.
I love punk, rock alternative, indie and metal but I enjoy most genres of pop and rap and all that other stuff, man even classical music given the right time and situation is good to listen to
Uh, yeah?
one of my favorite green day songs on my favorite album. this song is bittersweet
This is my warm up song on bass
Mine too

Ever notice how at the 2:04 mark it kinda sounds like Nirvana- Smells like teen spirit?
Just the same beat, but nowhere near the chord progression. Just different power chords.
@Mr. Meeseeks Nerd XDDDDDDD
Raddycal Yes Nerd. Better than being a dumbass ;)
Sounds like rape me
IMS Productions the drum composition is the exact same
I don't know why, but this song kind of sounds like panic song from insomniac
