Twenty-Five Miles
Twenty-five miles from home girl
My feet are hurting mighty bad
I been walking for two days and three lonely nights
You know that I'm mighty mad
Now I got a woman waiting for me
She’s gonna make my trip worthwhile
She's got the kind of loving and a kissing
To make a man go stone wild
Got to keep on walking, huh
I got to walk on,
Let me tell y’all
I’m so tired
But I just can't lose my stride
Got fifteen miles to go now
And I can hear my baby calling my name
It's as if as though I'm standing at her front door
I can hear a that doggone plain
Now I’m struggling to see my baby
And hold her in my arms one more time
When I kiss her lips, I turn a back over flip
And I forget about these feet of mine
Come on, feet, don't fail me now
I got ten more miles to go
I got nine (nine more, nine more)
Eight (eight more, eight more)
Seven (seven more, seven more)
Six, six, six (six more, six more)
I got five more miles to go now
Over the hill and around the bend
Though my feet are tired
I can't lose my stride
I got to get to my baby again
Got to keep on walking
I got to walk on
let me tell ya, y'all
I'm so tired
But I just can't lose my stride
I got to walk on
Gotta to keep on walking
