GREG BROWN lyrics - Walkin' Daddy

I'm walkin' daddy in the steps that you put down

I'm walkin' daddy & i know not where I'm bound



I'm walkin' daddy this road is dark & long

I'm walkin' daddy & your blood is in me strong



I'm walkin' daddy where the jack's fork river bends

Down in missouri where the jack's fork river bends

With you & ma & my sister & with all my dear friends



You're walkin' daddy off through the woods you old hillbilly

You said "this is my son in whom I am well pleased"



Ain't no road a good road until it's free to everyone

We're walkin' daddy father holy ghost & son



Ain't no sorrow can dim the love comes shining through

I'm walkin' daddy I know what I am here to do



To be of use try to help the deal along

I'm walkin' daddy & i'm just gonna keep walkin' on
