Virginia Coalition - Walk to Work lyrics

Walked to work 'cause my car broke down

I walked to work

I walked to work 'cause my car broke down (feet)

My feet started hurting on the other side of town

It's kinda hard in the city when you got no cash

My girl won't even call me

See I was broken by the man he kept me down

He kept me cold and penniless - shazaam

But now I'm payin' my bills and I'm doing my thing

And I got your girl to call me back

It's the same reason why we're doing our thing

Ordinary people gonna stand up sing

It's the same thing that made the big band swing

I been riding your bike with my shoes untied

I been making big moves without looking on the inside

Baby that's all right for you

But that ain't gonna work for me

Simple to see the things they saw

The fire in the sky (yo, I was blinded)

Well I remember it all said

I got my juice and my own space ride

And I got your girl to call me back, why not

It's the same reason why we're doing our thing

Ordinary people gonna stand up sing

It's the same thing that made the big band swing (la la la la)

Well, you can't sing the song without the girl

(I think about her every time I say my rhyme)

Some things you're gonna know and some you never will

Some things you'll never know

And some you will

And some you will drink and some will spill

And some will burn up and some will freeze

And some will come together with the greatest of ease

Maybe rocked and never roll

Maybe rocked and never roll

Child I'm on it

Maybe rocked and never roll

Maybe rocked and never roll

I walked to work 'cause my car broke down

My feet started hurting on the other side of town

It's kind of hard in the city when you got no cash

I got your girl to call me (what?!)

It's the same reason why we're doing our thing

Ordinary people gonna stand up sing

It's the same thing that made the big band swing

You can't sing the song without the girl

(Yo, I think about her every time I say my rhyme)

Some things you're gonna know and some you never will

We keep doing our thing

For reasons, we keep doing our thing

for reasons I'll never know

The child was born

on the edge of something else

She said I'm leaving you for someday
