Walking the Pavement

Intro

Oh

Yeah

One time for the junker

Verse 1

Old rusted metal frame won't even sputter or kick

Dead on arrival

Forty blocks from the garage where the greedy guys work

No sparks flying tonight

Half empty tank but the battery bled all its power

Dry as a bone

Pre-Chorus

Left it sitting in the gutter

Left it praying for a jump

Left it cold in the rain

Chorus

Walk ten miles home

Just me and my shadow

Walk ten miles home

Checking my pockets for change

Walk ten miles home

Nothing left but the fumes

Walking it out

Yeah

Walking it out

Post-Chorus

Miles on my shoes

Miles on my soul

Gone

So gone

Verse 2

Belt snapped like a dry twig in the freezing breeze

Towed to the boneyard

Crank the handle but the piston don't breathe no more

Oil stains on my shoes

Pavement feels harder when your steering column is locked

Looking for a bus

Pre-Chorus

Left it sitting in the gutter

Left it praying for a jump

Left it cold in the rain

Chorus

Walk ten miles home

Just me and my shadow

Walk ten miles home

Checking my pockets for change

Walk ten miles home

Nothing left but the fumes

Walking it out

Yeah

Walking it out

Post-Chorus

Miles on my shoes

Miles on my soul

Gone

So gone

Bridge

Blue smoke

Broken axles

Bad luck

Maybe I buy a bike

Maybe I stay in bed

Maybe I quit the road

Chorus

Walk ten miles home

Just me and my shadow

Walk ten miles home

Checking my pockets for change

Walk ten miles home

Nothing left but the fumes

Walking it out

Yeah

Walking it out
