Walk On By Lyrics

I heard that you′re leaving this sleepy little town
Bright lights must have caught your eye
'Cause you ain′t hanging around
You know people been talking
Say you're making a mistake
Better get on that Greyhound
Forget about what they say

And just walk on by
Walk on by
Don't look over your shoulder
Keep your head up high
And walk on by

I heard bad things about the city
And I′m told that they′re true
Better watch out for those guys out there
They're gonna hit on you
So don′t talk to no strangers
No, it ain't your style
Don′t give up when the chips are down
Don't turn around and smile

Just walk on by
Walk on by
Don′t look over your shoulder
Keep your head up high
And walk on by

Old enough to know why
Old enough to know why

Now you're standing at the station
Got a ticket in your hand
Guess you got your mind made up
You gotta get out while you can
Well don't say I never told you
Now the rest is up to you
Those streets could be a battlefield
When it′s hard to make it through

Just walk on by
Walk on by
Don′t look over your shoulder
Keep your head up high
And walk on by
Yeah, walk on by
You're a little bit lonely
You′re a little bit shy

Just walk on by
Yeah, walk on
