Twenty Five Miles - 1987 Remix

25 miles from home, girl

My feet are hurting mighty bad

Now, I've been walking for three days

And two lonely nights

You know that I'm mighty bad

But I got a girl waiting for me

That's gonna make this trip worthwhile

You see, she's got the kind of loving and kissing

Make a boy go stone wild

I got to keep on walking

Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm so tired (oh-oh-oh)

But I just can't lose my stride (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I've got 15 miles to go now

And I can hear my baby calling my name

It's as if, as though I'm standing at her front door

And I can hear that doggone thing

Now I'll be so glad to see my baby

And hold her in my arms one more time

And when I kiss her lips, I turn a backward flip

And I forget about these feet of mine

I got to keep on walking

Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm so tired (oh-oh-oh)

But I just can't lose my stride (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Yeah (walking)

I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all

Hope my feet don't fail me now

Five more miles to go

I got nine, eight, seven

Six, oh six

I got five more miles to go now

Over the hills just around the bend

Although my feet are tired, I can't lose my stride

I got to get my baby back again

I got to keep on walking

Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm so tired (oh-oh-oh)

But I just can't lose my stride (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm so tired (oh-oh-oh)

But I just can't lose my stride (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

Oh, I got to walk on
