Walk Tall (挺直腰杆) - Val Doonican[00:00:00]
Walk tall[00:00:00]
Walk tall walk straight and look the world right in the eye[00:00:05]
That's what my mama told me when I was about knee high[00:00:10]
She said son be a proud man and hold your head up high[00:00:15]
Walk tall walk straight and look the world right in the eye[00:00:19]
All through the years that I grew up ma taught these things to me[00:00:25]
But I was young and foolish then and much too blind to see[00:00:31]
I ignored the things she said as if I'd never heard[00:00:35]
Now I see and understand the wisdom of her words[00:00:40]
Walk tall walk straight and look the world right in the eye[00:00:44]
That's what my mama told me when I was about knee high[00:00:50]
She said son be a proud man and hold your head up high[00:00:54]
Walk tall walk straight and look the world right in the eye[00:00:59]
I started goin' places where the youngsters shouldn't go[00:01:05]
I got to know the kind of girls it's better not to know[00:01:10]
I fell in with a bad crowd and laughed and drank with them[00:01:15]
Through the laughter mama's words would echo now and then[00:01:19]
Walk tall walk straight and look the world right in the eye[00:01:24]
That's what my mama told me when I was about knee high[00:01:29]
She said son be a proud man and hold your head up high[00:01:34]
Walk tall walk straight and look the world right in the eye[00:01:38]
I got in trouble with the law and[00:01:44]
I'm in prison now[00:01:46]
Through these prison bars[00:01:50]
I see things so much different now[00:01:51]
I've got one year left to serve[00:01:54]
But when my time is done[00:01:56]
I'll walk tall and straight and make[00:01:59]
Ma proud to call me son[00:02:01]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:02:03]
The world right in the eye[00:02:05]
That's what my mama told me when[00:02:09]
I was about knee high[00:02:11]
She said son be a proud man[00:02:13]
And hold your head up high[00:02:15]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:02:17]
The world right in the eye[00:02:20]
Walk tall walk straight and look[00:02:22]
The world right in the eye[00:02:24]
Walk tall[00:02:27]
Walk tall[00:02:31]
