All these kinds of places make it seem like it's been ages And tomorrow some new buildings scrape the sky I love this country dearly, I can feel the latter clearly But I never thought I'd be alone to try Once I was outside Penn Station selling red and white carnations We were still young, my wife and I Before we met we saved my money, brought my dear wife over Now I work to bring my family stateside But after both they stayed a while then scattered across the coast Once a year I'll see them for a week or so at most I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Practice isn't perfect but the market cuts are lost I remind myself that times could be much worse My wife won't ask me questions, there's not so much to ask And she'll never faunt around an empty purse Once my momma locked in just to stay a couple nights And decided she would stay the rest of her life I watch my little children play some board game in the kitchen I bless it and pray they never feel my strife Then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone He made some bad investments, now the accounts are overdrawn I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Honey, it's your son, I think I borrowed just too much We had taxes, we had bills, we had a lifestyle of fun And tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young Tomorrow you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and the kids We can rip apart those socialists and all their damn taxes But see, I am no criminal, I'm down on both my knees I'm just too much a coward to admit when I'm in need I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk I should go on Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk www.mooji.org
