Joshua West - The Man Who Walked the Town

from Round 11, Week 12 by Monday Morning 3AM Music Club

/

lyrics

All you gotta do my friend
is put one foot in front of the last
The only thing you leave behind
is pavement and the past
and while you're wearing out your soles
you're building something new
the player of so many roles that's why they call you

The man who walked the town

From West End to Holly Avenue
the streets all look the same
and over in Buena Vista
they mispronounce the name
In Sherwood Forrest there is no
Robin Hood any more
They say the hardest steps you take
are the first ones from your door

For The man who walked the town

They ask you "what you doin', son?"
as you smile and give a nod
counting all your paces
as you ache to be reshod
but you laugh at all their insults
when the shoe's on the other foot
and when they finally drag you away
I wonder where they'll put

The man who walked the town

All the people laugh and say
the man has lost his mind
but when the streets are silent
and shadows are long
that's when you'll find

The man who walked the town
