Walk On

Susan Ashton


Some find their solace in a bottle of gin 
Some find it still better when their horse comes in 
It's a way to deal when life ain't grand 
You just a-pack-it-up, hang your head and fold your hands. 

Hmmm, hmmm. 

She worked all day long on a street named Despair 
In a town with no pity, she was going nowhere 
Well, funny how her heart, well, it grew colder and colder 
With the weight of the world crashing down on her shoulder. 

But when the going gets tough and the tough are long gone, just. 

Chorus: 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah! 

You can take your words made of psycho-babble 
I don't need no shrink to see my life's unraveled 
Pay you a mountain of gold to candy coat me lies 
I'm at the end of my rope, time I realize. 

That when the going gets tough and the tough are long gone, just 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on, Who-oh! 

Chorus: 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah! 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! yeah, yeah! 

Well, I know we ain't seeing the best of times 
And I long stopped dreaming those crazy dreams of mine 
These days get so long, and my heart grows weak 
And honey, we ain't living on no easy street. 

But when the going gets tough and the tough are long gone 
It's just a-you-and-me, baby, left to walk on! 

Chorus: 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah! 

Chorus: 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on 
Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah!...
