Walk of Shame
Jimmy Fallon feat. Dave Matthews Lyrics

I woke up,
After a night of drinking and partying, I opened my eyes to the morning light.

Rubbed my eyes,
I tried to focus my blurry vision by wiping my eyes clean with my hands.

Tried to remember
I struggled to recall the events that occurred the previous night.

What the hell I did last night
I couldn't remember what happened after I had too much to drink and lost control.

This aint my bed
I realized that I had woken up in someone else's bed.

This aint my room
I observed that the room I woke up in was unfamiliar to me.

Had a crazy night
I reflected on how wild the previous night had been.

Now I know what I got to do
I recognized that I needed to leave the house as quickly and discreetly as possible.

Walk of Shame [x4]
I began the journey of shamefully leaving the house of the person I had spent the night with.

I got my drink on
I drank heavily at the party last night.

I got my dance on
I danced my heart out at the party last night.

Now I'm walking home with
I am currently walking back to my home.

Someone elses pants on
I am wearing pants that do not belong to me.

Crossed the quad
I walked across the quad or quad-campus, which is a central space in college or university.

Pulled my hat down low,
I lowered my hat over my face, hoping to conceal my identity.

Saw a group of friends
I spotted some of my acquaintances or classmates on my way back.

That I pretend I didn’t know
I acted like I didn't recognize them, hoping to avoid any further embarrassment.

Walk of shame [x3]
I continued to feel mortified about my current situation as I walked down the street.

‘Was a walk of shame
The journey back home after a wild night feels like a shameful experience.

Baby your place or mine
You suggested that we continue the night at either of our homes.

Either is fine,
Either option is okay with me.

But we’ll have to decide which one of us
However, we need to decide whose place to go to.

Takes the Walk of shame
Whichever decision we make, one of us will have to walk back home in a humiliating way.

Walk of shame [x3]
The idea of the walk of shame continues to be a source of embarrassment and discomfort for me.

But tonight
However, tonight is going to be different.

Man I’m gonna make it right
I am determined to make things right this time around.

I’m gonna be prepared
I will make sure that I am well-equipped to handle any unexpected situations.

I’m gonna pack a change of clothes in the bottom of my jansport
I will pack an extra set of clothes in my backpack, just in case I spend the night somewhere else.

Visine tic tacs and some axe bottle spray
I will also carry Visine eye drops and a bottle of deodorant to freshen up before leaving the place.

Hold my head high when I walk outside
I am going to walk outside with confidence and dignity this time around.

Gonna take that walk of shame with priiiiiiiiiiiiide
I will no longer feel ashamed of the walk of shame but I will do it with pride.

[Dave:] Walk of shame [x4]
The walk of shame continues to be a source of humor and ridicule within the society.

[Jimmy and Dave:] Walk of Shame [x4]
Jimmy Fallon and Dave Matthews sing the chorus together, emphasizing the phrase 'Walk of Shame'.

Walk of Shame [till end]
The song ends with the repetition of 'Walk of Shame'.
