25 Miles

Twenty five miles to go now
And my feet are hurting mighty bad
I've been walking three days and two lonely nights
You know that I'm mighty mad

But I got a woman waiting for me
That's gonna make this trip worthwhile
She's got the kind of lovin' and a-kissing
That makes a man go stone wild

I got to keep on walkin'
I got to walk on, ooh
I'm so tired
But I just can't lose my stride

I got fifteen miles to go now
I can hear my baby calling my name
It's as though I'm standing at her front door
I can hear her so doggone plain

I'll be so glad to see my baby
And hold her in my arms one more time
When I kiss her lips
I'll turn a back over flip and forget these feet of mine

I got to keep on walkin'
I got to walk on, ooh
I'm so tired
I just can't lose my stride
Ooh!

Come on feet don't fail me now
I got ten more miles to go
I got nine, eight, seven, six, eight, six

I got a five more miles to go now
Over the hill, just around the bend
My feet are tired, I can't lose my stride
I got to see to my baby again

I got to keep on walkin'
I got to walk on, ooh!
Uh!
I'm almost home

I can see my baby, yo
I ain't gon' never leave no more
I got five
I got four
I got three
I got two
I got one
Hello baby it's me, ooh
I'm so glad to be at home
