I'm a Monday night football, Friday night pool hall guy I ain't never been one to let a good time pass me by You're standin' there statin' you're tired of waitin' My celebratin's gratin' on you If you feel that way if it'll make you stay Well here's what I'm gonna do If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl You'll see how low a man can go When his back's against the wall I'll be grovelin' in the gravel If you make that taxi call If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl You're a one man pure gold genuine good ol' girl You've been waitin' on me to get tired of my neon world Now the turn you've taken has got me shakin' It's a heart breakin' wake up call Now I'm seein' how you see me And I feel about shoe top tall If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl You'll see how low a man can go When his back's against the wall I'll be grovelin' in the gravel If you make that taxi call If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl
