Walk The Walk Lyrics

You were 14 floating in on that suburban air (I'd just)

Quit high school and you know I really didn't care

I was the son of a gardener

You were a boy of the mud

I was sitting like the Buddha with a snake crawling through my hair

Castaneda, Aleister Crowley

Tarot, weed, LSD

Anything was possible as long you were there with me

Walk the Walk

We spent the summer hitch-hiking 'cross the USA

With Three hundred dollars and a backpack we made our way

When we got back to our hometown

Highschool wasn't the same, it seems your

Your teachers just weren't vibrating on the astral plane

When you showed up with a girlfriend

I never knew my heart could scar

I moved to the city and I left you with your guitar

Walk the Walk

One night I'm hustling west on 14th street

Next night sniffing cocaine in a penthouse suite

He sent me out to the bodega

Thousand dollars cash in my hand, he said

Get me some cigarettes and baby you can keep the change

Knee-deep in the '80s

I held the new world in my jeans

Prince of new York city in a crazy Dionysian dream

Walk the Walk

Last time I saw you I was laying in my mama's bed

87 pounds, cold rag on my sunken head

You were with your new wife baby

I was near the end of my day

I heard you say I love you through the fog of morphine dread

In the end it just doesn't matter

Whether you were mine or not

Love is love is love is love and that's all we got

Walk the Walk
