David Freiberg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walkin' on the ocean water
Walkin' down the road to glorytown
Lookin' for the Pharaoh's daughter
I'm goin' down and if I don't come back
Tie all my dope on a wire wheel track
Give it to the man who'll have them back
From my life, from my life
[Chorus:]
Oh... Honey have a time on me
Oh... Baby getcha high on me
Oh... Won't you try a dance on me
Oh... Honey have a time on me
Walkin' down the road to glorytown
Walkin' on the ocean water
Walkin' down the road to glorytown
Huntin' for the Pharaoh's daughter
She's makin' it hotter & hotter
Take my hand it's an avalanche
It'll worry your mind, but take a chance
Take off your tie, but don't leave the dance
Of your life, of your life
[Chorus]
