[Verse 1]

Walking slow down the avenue

Through my old neighborhood

Don't know why I'm happy

I've got no reason to feel this good

Maybe it's because I'm all alone

And I've got no place to go

And everywhere I look I see

Another person I'll never know


[Chorus]

I got a thing or two to say

Before I walk on by

I'm feeling good today

But if I die a little farther along

I'm trusting everyone to carry on


[Verse 2]

Pretty little girl

Running up and down the street with no shoes on

I got a pretty little girl of my own at home

Sometimes we forget we love each other

And we fight for no reason

I don't know what I'll do if she ever leaves me alone


[Chorus]

I got a thing or two to say

Before I walk on by

I'm feeling good today

But if I die a little farther along

I'm trusting everyone to carry on


[Guitar Solo]


[Chorus]

I got a thing or two to say

Before I walk on by

I'm feeling good today

But if I die a little farther along

I'm trusting everyone to carry on


[Post-Chorus]

I'm putting down my left foot

I'm putting down my right foot

Ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo


[Chorus]

I got a thing or two to say

Before I walk on by

I'm feeling good today

But if I die a little farther along

I'm trusting everyone to carry on


[Outro]

Ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo
