The Walk Lyrics

The Walk

Down our long dusty driveway
I didn't want to go,
But I set out with tears
In my eyes a-wondering...
Daddy took me by the hand
Looked out at the school bus
And his little man and said,
"Don't worry, Boy,
It'll be alright...

'Cause I took this walk your walking now
Boy, I've been in your shoes.
Well, you can't hold back the hands of time,
It's just something you've got to do.
So dry your eyes I understand
Just what you're going through,
Cause I took this same walk with my old man,
Boy, I've been in your shoes..."

Down our long dusty driveway
I set my mind to go.
Well I was eighteen and
Wild and free and a-wondering...
Daddy took me by the hand,
Look at the world and
At his grown man and said,
"Don't worry, Boy,
It'll be alright...

'Cause I took this walk your walking now
Boy, I've been in your shoes. Well, you can't hold back the hands of time,
It's just something you've got to do.
So dry your eyes I understand
Just what you're going through,
Cause I took this same walk with my old man,
Boy, I've been in your shoes..."

Down our long dusty driveway
This time we both would go
Well he had grown old and gray
And his mind was a-wondering...
Daddy took me by the hand,
Said, "I know where we're going
and I understand,
Don't worry, Boy,
It will be alright...

'Cause I took this walk your walking now Boy,
I've been in your shoes
Well you can't hold back the hands of time
It's just something you've got to do
So dry eyes I understand
Just what you're going through
Cause I took this same walk with my old man,
Boy, I've been in your shoes...

'Cause I took this walk your walking now,
Boy, I've been in your shoes..."
