Lyrics
Long Walk John (Kuss/Saretsky)
It?s a long walk John ? to the other side
To get to where you wanna go
It?s a long walk John ? a long hard climb
There?ll be a load you?ll have ta tow
So ya didn?t come home from work again tonight
There was a time ya had your freedom ? but now it just ain?t right
It?s been a long time now since you acted your age
You?re with the boys again today
And she?s by herself ? cryin? and a wishin?
Try not to make those hard decisions
It?s a long walk John ? to the other side
To get to where you wanna go
It?s a long walk John ? a long hard climb
There?ll be a load you?ll have ta tow
You really must admit that she deserves the best
And treatin? her like a fool was only less
She?s packed up all her luggage like a hundred times before
She can?t take it anymore
And what comes around is finally back on you
It?s a restless feeling when ya get your due
It?s a long walk John ? to the other side
To get to where you wanna go
It?s a long walk John ? a long hard climb
There?ll be a load you?ll have ta tow
So ya wanna be a kid for the rest of your life
Ya don?t need no woman ? ya don?t want no wife
I know it?s just your way man ? that?s okay
But when ya change your tune you?ll have to pay
It?s a long walk John ? to the other side
To get to where you wanna go
It?s a long walk John ? a long hard climb
There?ll be a load you?ll have ta tow
