Movin' in silent desperation Keepin' an eye on the holy land
A hypothetical destination Who is this walking man? ♪ Though the leaves have come to turnin' And goose has gone to fly Bridges are for burnin' So don't you let that yearning pass you by The walking man Walking man walks Any other man stops and talks Just the walking man walks ♪ Well, the frost is on the pumpkin And the hay is in the barn And you know pappy's gonna run and rambling on Stumbling around drunken down the farm The walking man walks Doesn't know nothin' 'bout nothin' Any other man stops and talks But the walking man walks ♪ Most everybody got seeds to sow It ain't always easy for a weed to grow, no He don't hoe the row For sure, he's always missin' Something's never quite aright Who would wanna listen to you Kissing his existence goodnight? The walking man Doesn't know nothin' 'bout nothin' Any other man stops and talks But not the walking man ♪ Not the walking man No, no, not the walking man ♪ Wouldn't have a wings to fly Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
