Yankee Grey is the story of a safe place. The lyricist warns, “They say we all have a purpose in life/and I’m still trying to find my way/I’m telling you now if the going gets rough/I’m retreating back to Yankee Grey.” It’s “a place in the heart” to go and escape troubles, because “life is a battlefield” sometimes. Listen and find your retreat in a song called Yankee Grey.
