Walk Until I Ride

[Verse 1]
Clouds opened up, rain pourin' from the sky
Arm in the air tryin' to flag a ride
But the cabs don't go to my part of town
They just passed me by, not even slowin' down

[Chorus]
So I'm gonna walk until I ride
I'm gonna keep my head held high
They can try to take my freedom, they can't take my pride
I'm gonna walk, walk, walk until I ride

[Verse 2]
Four in the mornin, my baby child was cryin'
Fever he had kept on burnin' higher
Grabbed the phone, dialed 911
When I told them where I lived, I knew they wouldn't come

[Chorus]
So I'm gonna walk (I'm gonna walk) until I ride (Until I ride)
Keep my head (I'm gonna keep) held way high (Held up high)
Take my freedom (You can't take my pride), take my pride
I'm gonna walk, walk, walk until I ride

[Verse 3]
We're walkin' for the poor and unemployed
The hopeless and the hungry and those who have no joy
We're walking for the refugees and those who have no home
For every single living soul who feels so all alone, we gonna walk

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 4]
If you ever stumble, reach out and take my hand
We're in this life together 'til we reach the promised land
We gonna keep on walkin' 'til our shoes wear out
Until we reach salvation and you can hear us shout

[Chorus]
We gonna walk (We gonna walk) until we ride (Until we ride)
Keep our head (Keep our head) held way high (Held way high)
Take our freedom, take our pride (Take our pride)
But we gonna walk, walk, walk until we ride

[Post-Chorus]
We gonna walk, walk, walk

[Chorus]
I'm gonna walk (I'm gonna walk) until I ride (Until I ride)
Keep my head (Keep my head) held way high (Held way high)
Take my freedom (Freedom), take my pride (Pride)
I'm gonna walk, walk, walk until I ride
I'm gonna walk (I'm gonna walk) until I ride (Until I ride)
Keep my head (Keep my head) held way high (Held way high)
Take my freedom (Freedom), can't take my pride (Pride)
I'm gonna walk, walk, walk until I ride

[Outro]
I'm gonna walk walk walk until I ride
I'm gonna walk walk walk until I ride
