I'm walkin' home tonight[00:00:01]
The streets are glowing 'neath the pale moonlight[00:00:08]
I look around there's not a soul in sight[00:00:17]
And I'm walkin' home[00:00:27]
Once again I hear my mother's voice[00:00:34]
And all us kids making a bunch of noise[00:00:38]
If I'm not careful I might start to cry[00:00:50]
Just walkin' home tonight[00:01:00]
I turn my head and hear the screen door slam[00:01:07]
And there he is that tall and dark-haired man[00:01:16]
He looks my way but all alone he stands[00:01:24]
And I am walkin' home[00:01:34]
He's my Dad you know I was his girl[00:01:41]
He taught me all he knew about this world[00:01:50]
And then he traveled right on out of sight[00:01:58]
And I'm just walkin' home tonight[00:02:08]
I'm walkin' home tonight[00:02:15]
The streets are glowing 'neath the pale moonlight[00:02:23]
I look around there's not a soul in sight[00:02:32]
And I am walkin' home[00:02:42]
Old worn-out couches and a bunch of kids[00:02:48]
Four to a bedroom and all Mom's plates were chipped[00:02:57]
But I never knew about the things I missed[00:03:05]
And I'm walkin' home[00:03:16]
You see it's just the place where I come from[00:03:22]
And good or bad it's where the deal was done[00:03:32]
Mom and Dad their daughters and their sons[00:03:40]
And I'm just walkin' home tonight[00:03:50]
I'm walkin' home tonight[00:03:57]
The streets are glowing 'neath the pale moonlight[00:04:06]
I look around there's not a soul in sight[00:04:14]
And I'm walkin' home[00:04:22]
Once again I hear my mother's voice[00:04:31]
And all us kids making a bunch of noise[00:04:40]
If I'm not careful I might start to cry[00:04:48]
Just walkin' home tonight[00:04:58]
