Walkin'
Bryan Duncan Lyrics

Met an ugly man in Reno
Encountered an unattractive man in Reno

Ladies hangin' on his arm
Women were clinging onto him

In a lipstick-red Porsche
He was driving a bright red Porsche

Downtown, sellin' his charm
He was in the city center, selling his charisma

Dealin' out a new prescription
Providing a new solution

A faster way to make things pay
A quicker method to make money

"Step into the bargain basement, Boy,
Enter this cheap deal, young man,

Let me show you my tray."
And I'll display my goods".

He says, "Heaven is a long way later,
He's claiming that eternal salvation is distant,

These'll keep you flyin' high."
But his products will keep you feeling euphoric.

But I'll keep walkin', thank you
I will continue to walk forward, thanks

(Walkin')
Walking

Ha, ha, skinny man in horn-rim glasses
A thin man wearing horn-rimmed glasses

Chokin' on a power tie
Struggling to breathe because of his tie

He's rolled up in a Wall Street Journal, mm
He's got his head in a Wall Street Journal

"You disinform, you don't lie."
"You spread deceit, you don't tell the truth."

A gamble on a speculation,
He's trying his luck on a guess

Redefine a cardinal sin
Changing the definition of an important misdeed

"You're runnin' on a fast-track theory, baby,
"You are pursuing an expedited concept,"

You gotta cheat to win"
He's asserting that one needs to cheat to succeed.

He says, "Heaven is a long way later
He maintains that spiritual salvation is a distant prospect

You gotta run to beat the bottom line."
And one must work hard to succeed.

Well, I keep walkin', thank you
Nonetheless, I shall keep moving forward, thanks.

(Walkin', walkin')
(I'm) Walking, walking)

I keep walkin'
I will persist in my forward progress,

(Walkin', thank you)
(Walking, thank you)

Thank you
Thank you

Cannibal who thinks he's Moses
A person who eats others and believes he is Moses

Underneath a fine toupee
Beneath a high-quality hairpiece

A handle on a revelation
He preaches about an epiphany

"Righteousness the easy way"
"Just do the good stuff,"

A vision and a confirmation
He claims to have had a vision and received proof of it.

Emotional in every plea
He's very passionate when he pleads

"Take a precious few to Glory-Land
He's inviting only a few to take a ride to Glory-Land,

'Cause everyone is wrong but me."
"Because I am the only one who's right."

He says, "Heaven is a long way later
He reiterates that heavenly paradise is far off,

Get a ticket on the Glory Train."
So buy a ticket for the Glory Train'

I keep walkin', thank you
I shall persist in advancing ahead, thanks.

(Walkin')
(Walking)

I keep walkin', thank you
I will continue to tread forward, thank you.

(Walkin', walkin', walkin'), say!
(Walking, walking, walking), listen!

Walk, walk, walk with me, hey
Let's walk together, hey

Heaven is a long way later,
The kingdom of heaven is far off,

(Walk with me)
(Walk with me)
