Twenty-Five Miles (Live)

C'mon feet, start movin'
Got to get me there, owww

Hey hey, uh huh, huh, huh, huh, oh
Uh huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, yeah, oh

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, huh

But I got a woman waitin' for me
That's gonna make this trip worthwhile
You see she's got the kind
Of lovin' and a kissin'
A make a man go stone wild

So I got to keep on walkin', mmm hmm, huh
I got to walk on, oh ho ho
I-I-I-I-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
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, huh
Now when I kiss her lips
I'll turn a back over flip
And I'll forget about these feet of mine

I got to keep on walkin', hey
I got to walk on, let me tell ya y'all
I-I-I-I-I'm so tired, huh
But I just can't lose my stride

Owww

C'mon 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, huh

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', mmm hmm, hey
I got to walk on

Wait, let me tell ya y'all

I-I-I-I-I'm so tired, huh
But I just can't lose my stride

Walkin' yeah, huh
I got to walk on
Let me tell ya y'all
I see my baby just across the fence...
