25 Miles

Twenty five miles from home, girl

My feet are hurtin? mighty bad

Now I've been walkin? for three days

And two lonely nights you know that I'm mighty bad



But I got a girl waitin? for me

That's gonna make this trip worthwhile

You see, she's got the kind

Of lovin? and kissin? make a boy go stone wild



I got to keep on walkin?

Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all I'm so tired

But I just can't lose my stride



I got fifteen miles to go now

And I can hear my baby callin? my name

It's as if, as though I'm standin? 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 backward flip

And I forget about these feet of mine



I got to keep on walkin?

Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you, y'all I'm so tired

But I just can't lose my stride



Yeah, I got to walk on let me tell you

Y'all hope my feet don't fail me now

I got 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 walkin?

I got to walk on

Let me tell y'all I'm so tired now

But I just can't lose my stride



Oh, I got to walk on

Let me tell you now I'm so tired

But I just can't lose my stride

I got to walk on
