Artist/Band: Alan Jackson
Lyrics for Song: Walkin' the Floor Over Me
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Classics [2011]



(Don Sampson - Alan Jackson)



There's a lady livin' right above me

Pretty as a picture on the wall

Once I helped her with a bag of groceries

We met a time or two out in the hall.



She told me somebody hurt her feelin's

The hurt that's in her eyes is plain to see

Slowly she's been wearin' out my ceilin'

Walkin' the floor over me.



Every night I hear her cryin'

Cryin' over some old memory

A little of my heart is down here dyin'

'Cause she's walkin' the floor over me.



Ah ha.

--- Instrumental ---



Back and forth I followed every footstep

Countin' long enough to fall asleep

Had the sweetest dream last night 'cause I dreamt

She was walkin' the floor over me.



Every night I hear her cryin'

Cryin' over some old memory

A little of my heart is down here dyin'

'Cause she's walkin' the floor over me.



That woman is walkin' the floor over me...


Walkin' the Floor Over Me

Alan Jackson's "Walkin' the Floor Over Me" stands as a quintessential example of his mastery of traditional country storytelling. Recorded for the compilation "Original Album Classics [2011]," the track exemplifies the honky-tonk and bluegrass influences that have defined Jackson's career since his early days on "Under the Influence." The song's narrative captures the rhythm and emotion of a lively dance floor, reflecting the social dynamics central to his body of work. By weaving together acoustic instrumentation with a relatable tale of connection and movement, Jackson delivers a performance that resonates deeply within the genre. It serves as a testament to his ability to craft songs that honor classic country traditions while maintaining a contemporary appeal, making it a staple for fans of his discography.
