Twenty Five Miles

Come on, feet!

Start movin'

Got to get me there

Ow!

Hey, hey

Uh-ah-ah-ah-ah

Oh!

Uh-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, yeah

Oh!

25 miles from home, girl

My feet are hurtin' mighty bad

Now, I been walkin' for three days and two lonely nights

You know that I'm mighty mad, huh

But I got a woman waitin' for me

That's gonna make this trip worth the while

You see, she's got the kinda lovin' and a kissin'

A make a man go stone wild

So, I got to keep on walkin'

Mmm-hm, huh

I got to walk on

Whoa-ho-ho

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) I'm so tired

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) but I just can't lose my stride

I got 15 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

I can hear that doggone playin'

Now, I'll be so glad to see my baby

And hold her in my arms one more time, huh

Now when I kiss her lips, I'll turn a back-over flip

And I'll forget about these feet of mine

I got to keep on, walkin'

Hey, whew!

I got to walk on

Let me tell ya, y'all!

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) I'm so tired

(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin') but I just can't lose my stride

Whew!

Come on feet, don't fail me now (come on feet, don't fail)

I got, ten more miles to go (ten more miles)

I got nine (step on, step on)

Eight (step on, step on)

Seven (step on, step on)

Six, six, six (step on, step on)

I got five more miles to go now

Over the hill, just around the bend, huh

Although my feet are tired, I can't lose my stride

I got to get to my baby again

I got to keep on walkin'

Mmm-hm, hey

I got to walk on

Please, let me tell ya, y'all!

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) I'm so tired

(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin') but I just can't lose my stride

(Walkin') yes, huh!

I got to walk on

Let me tell ya, y'all!

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) see my baby just across the fence

(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin') whew!

(Walkin') hey, now!

I got to walk on

Let me tell ya, y'all I got to say it!

(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) I been steppin' since the funk came on...
