Lyrics
My walking shoes don't fit me anymore
My walking shoes don't fit me anymore
Stay on your side of town, honey, I won't be around
My walking shoes don't fit me anymore
It's long way from here to over yonder
My feet, they're getting mighty sore
I ain't coming back, you've made your mind to wander
My walking shoes don't fit me anymore
I'll be a long time gone from you baby
You'll never hear me knock upon your door
I thought you were worth it once, but I was crazy
My walking shoes don't fit me anymoreDemo Videos
