Guy Clark - Walking Man [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Now what's up with the walking man
I wonder where he's gone
Marching down to Birmingham
I think I'll tag along
Was a walking man come by here
A hundred years ago
Walking down the trail of tears
Out to Oklahom-i-o out to Oklahome

[Chorus]
Hand me down my walking shoes
Hand me down my cane
Tune me up my mandolin
I'll be on my way
Hey sure does smell like rain

[Verse 2]
Woody Guthrie was a walking man
In the dust bowl days
Had a six string guitar in his hands
He killed a fascist every day
Chuck Berry is a walking man
So was Ghandi too
Lace me up my old Brogans
That's just what I'll do
I got walking left to do

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Tell you what I'd do
I'd walk away and not come back
Until got to Katmandu-da-do-da
All the do-da-day
