Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Worked the bars and sideshows along the twilight zone
Only a crowd can make you feel so alone
And it really hit home
Booze and pills and powders, you can choose your medicine
Well here's another goodbye to another good friend
[Verse 2]
After all is said and done
Gotta move while it's still fun
Let me walk before they make me run
After all is said and done
I gotta move, it's still fun
I'm gonna walk before they make me run
[Verse 3]
Watched the taillights fading, there ain't a dry eye in the house
They're laughing and singing
Oh, Lord, they are dancing and drinking as I left town
Gonna find my way to heaven, 'cause I did my time in hell, ah, yeah
I wasn't looking too good but I was feeling real well
[Verse 4]
After all is said and done
I gotta move I had my fun
Let us walk before they make us run
[Verse 5]
After all is said and done
I did alright, I had my fun
I will walk before they make me run
I will walk before they make me run
I will walk before they make me run
I will walk before they make me run
[Verse 6]
After all is said and done
I gotta move, I had my fun
I will walk before they make me run
Let me walk before they make me run
I wanna walk before they make me run
