Lyrics
Walkin’ Shoes
Words & Music by Dave Nachmanoff
Hand me down my walkin’ shoes, I must be on my way
Hand me down my walkin’ shoes, can’t wait another day
Nothing’s gonna keep me here, no matter what you say
So hand me down my walkin’ shoes, I must be on my way
Hand me down my backpack, I’ll take only what I need
Hand me down my backpack, the rest I’ll gladly leave
The clothes that I’ve got on, and a crust of bread of bread to eat
Hand me down my backpack, I’ll take only what I need
Bridge:
I’m drowning in a sea of domesticity
I gave it all I had, but this is not the life for me
Give me back my heart, I might need it where I’m going
Give me back my heart, there may be a cold wind blowin’
I’m not the kind to walk around with all my feelings showin’
But give me back my heart, I might need it where I’m going
(Repeat first verse)
