(Verses are spoken with 

walking sound background effects throughout) 

Man, slow down, don't walk so fast 

All ya got to do is take your time 

We'll get there 

Stay in the road 

I don't blame the people 

For 'em sayin, 'Walkin the blues' 

Walkin' the blues? 

'Cause this is it, boy 

Now, I think I'm 'on relax myself 

That's the way you relax 

Now, watch this 

(piano) 

Boy, it's a hot day 

All ya got to do 

Is put one foot in front the other one 

And just keep on walkin' 

Walkin' them blues 

(piano) 

That's what you call slidin' em, too 

I hope the old lady's home 

When I get there, all this walking 

Ah, when I say, the 'old lady' 

I mean my wife 

I ain't talkin' about my mother-in-law 

But I know she's always there 

So, we just gonna keep on walkin' it in 

(piano & bass) 

We'll soon be there 

(piano & bass to end fade)
