25 Miles Lyrics - Edwin Starr

Twenty-five miles from home, girl 

My feet are hurtin' mighty bad 

Now I've been walkin' for three days 

And two lonely nights 

You know that I'm mighty mad 

But I got a woman waitin' for me 

That's gonna make this trip worthwhile 

You see, she's got the kind of lovin' & a-kissin' 

Make a man go stone wild 

I got to keep on walkin' 

Oh I got to walk on 

Let me tell you, y'all 

I'm so tired 

But I just can't lose my stride 

I got fifteen 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 

And I can hear her that doggone plain 

Now I'll be so glad to see my baby 

And hold her in my arms one more time 

Now when I kiss her lips 

I turn a backover flip 

And I forget about these feet of mine 

I got to keep on walkin' 

Oh I got to walk on 

Let me tell you, y'all 

I'm so tired 

But I just can't lose my stride 

Come on, feet, don't fail me now 

I got ten more miles to go 

I got nine, eight, seven 

Six, six, six 

I got five more miles to go now 

Over the hill just around the bend 

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' 

I got to walk on 

Let me tell y'all 

I'm so tired now 

But I just can't lose my stride 

Oh, I got to walk on 

Let me tell you now 

I'm so tired 

But I just can't lose my stride 

I got to walk on
