[Verse 1] Now what's up with the walking man I wonder where he's gone Marching down to Birmingham I think I'll tag along Was a walking man come by here A hundred years ago Walking down the trail of tears Out to Oklahom-i-o out to Oklahome [Chorus] Hand me down my walking shoes Hand me down my cane Tune me up my mandolin I'll be on my way Hey sure does smell like rain [Verse 2]
Woody Guthrie was a walking man In the dust bowl days Had a six string guitar in his hands He k**ed a fascist every day Chuck Berry is a walking man So was Ghandi too Lace me up my old Brogans That's just what I'll do I got walking left to do [Chorus] [Outro] Tell you what I'd do I'd walk away and not come back Until got to Katmandu-da-do-da All the do-da-day
