Walkin' Along -- G Clair


Walkin' along
I hear his voice and get a skip in my step
I have to watch it cause I'm getting a rep
for acting crazy when I'm walkin' along

I hear his song
and nothin' else is makin' me tingle
could be the way he puts the gin in his jingle,
so amazing, all this talent of his
ain't no wonder, 'bout the best that there is

well he's old
though it's said
being old is better off than dead
but we know
where he'll go
who saved his soul and for his sins He bled

and when i'm blue
his voice can reach me in the worst places
he bears the burden, then he ties up my laces
and he lifts me like the sun in his song
staying with me while I'm walkin' along

it seems to be true
when it's pouring down he'll break out the moonshine
and while you're soaking up the melody's sunshine
he'll take the rhythm, leave the singin' to you
and walk you through it though you haven't a clue

well he's ripe
as a goat
with all the hype he's got the right to gloat
though he knows every note
prefers just talkin' through whatever he wrote

awalkin' along
I hear his voice and get a skip in my step
I have to watch it cause I'm getting a rep
for acting crazy when I'm walkin' along
I hear his song

and nothin' else is makin' me tingle
could be the way he puts the gin in his jingle,
so amazing, all this talent of his
ain't no wonder, 'bout the best that there is
