I keep walking

the rain may fall down

the wind, it can blow

the sun may beat down

but still I must go

I keep walking

I keep on pushing through

I keep walking

right on home to you

the news may be awful

it usually does

if you ask me why

I'll just say because

I keep walking

I do the best I can do

I keep walking

right on home to you

          there are cars on the freeway

          freight trains on the track

          but I'll keep walking to you

          and I'm never going back

I hope that you are waiting

that you'll be there when I come

and I'm never looking backwards

at where I'm coming from

I keep walking

like I'm going to Timbukto

I keep walking

right back home to you

          there are skateboards on the sidewalk

          and scooters on the street

          neither one of those

          I never hope to meet

the rain may fall down

the wind, it can blow

with everything around me

there's one thing that I know

I keep walking

just like I always do

I keep walking

right on home to you
