Walk Tall (挺直腰杆) - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)[00:00:00]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:00:05]
The world right in the eye[00:00:08]
That's what my mama told me[00:00:11]
When I was about knee high[00:00:13]
She said son be a proud man[00:00:16]
And hold your head up high[00:00:18]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:00:20]
The world right in the eye[00:00:22]
All through the years that[00:00:26]
I grew up ma taught these things to me[00:00:27]
But I was young and foolish[00:00:31]
Then and much too blind to see[00:00:33]
I ignored the things she said[00:00:36]
As if I'd never heard[00:00:38]
Now I see and understand the wisdom of her words[00:00:41]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:00:45]
The world right in the eye[00:00:47]
That's what my mama told me[00:00:51]
When I was about knee high[00:00:53]
She said son be a proud man and[00:00:55]
Hold your head up high[00:00:58]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:01:00]
The world right in the eye[00:01:02]
I started goin' places where[00:01:05]
The youngsters shouldn't go[00:01:07]
I got to know the kind of girls[00:01:11]
It's better not to know[00:01:13]
I fell in with a bad crowd[00:01:16]
And laughed and drank with them[00:01:18]
Through the laughter mama's[00:01:20]
Words would echo now and then[00:01:22]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:01:25]
The world right in the eye[00:01:27]
That's what my mama told me[00:01:30]
When I was about knee high[00:01:32]
She said son be a proud man[00:01:35]
And hold your head up high[00:01:37]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:01:39]
The world right in the eye[00:01:41]
I got in trouble with the law[00:01:45]
And I'm in prison now[00:01:47]
Through these prison bars I see[00:01:51]
Things so much different now[00:01:53]
I've got one year left to serve[00:01:55]
And when my time is done[00:01:57]
I'll walk tall and straight and make[00:02:00]
Ma proud to call me son[00:02:02]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:02:04]
The world right in the eye[00:02:06]
That's what my mama told me[00:02:10]
When I was about knee high[00:02:12]
She said son be a proud man[00:02:14]
And hold your head up high[00:02:17]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:02:19]
The world right in the eye[00:02:21]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:02:23]
The world right in the eye[00:02:26]
Walk tall[00:02:28]
Walk tall[00:02:32]
