Twenty-Five Miles lyrics

Come on, feet, start movin'
Got to get me there
Hey, hey
Uh, huh, huh, huh, huh, oh
Uh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, yeah
Oh

It's 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' and a-kissin'
A-make a man go stone wild

So I got to keep on walkin
Huh!
I got to walk on
Oh, ho, oh
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah) I-I-I-I-I'm so tired
(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin'.) But I just can't lose my stride

I got fifteen miles to go now
And I can hear my baby call my name
It's as if as though I'm standin' at her front door
I can hear that doggone plane
Now I'll be so glad to see my baby
And hold her in my arms once more
Now when I kiss her lips, I turn her back over flip
And I'll forget about those feet of mine
So I got to keep on walkin'
Hey
I got to walk on
Let me tell ya, y'all
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah) I-I-I-I-I'm so tired, huh
(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin'.) But I just can't lose my stride

Whoo!
Come on, feet, don't fail me now. (Come on, feet, don't stop.)
I got ten more miles to go. (Ten more miles)
I got nine, (Step on, step on.)
Eight, (Step on, step on.)
Seven, (Step on, step on.)
Six, six, six. (Step on, step on.)

I got five more miles to go
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

So I got to keep on walkin'
Hey
I got to walk on
Wait, let me tell you, y'all
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah) I-I-I-I-I'm so tired
(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin'.) But I just can't lose my stride
(Walkin') Hey! Huh!
I got to walk on
Let me tell you, y'all
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah) I see my baby just across the bend
(Ah-ah, step on, keep on steppin'.) Whoooo-ooh!
(Walkin') Hey, hey now
I got to walk on
Let me tell you, y'all, yeah, you know
(Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah) I've been steppin' since the sun came up.
