1
I'm walkin' home tonight
2
The streets are glowing 'neath the pale moonlight
3
I look around, there's not a soul in sight
4
And I'm walkin' home
5
Once again I hear my mother's voice
6
And all us kids making a bunch of noise
7
If I'm not careful I might start to cry
8
Just walkin' home tonight
9
I turn my head and hear the screen door slam
10
And there he is, that tall and dark-haired man
11
He looks my way but all alone he stands
12
And I am walkin' home
13
He's my Dad, you know I was his girl
14
He taught me all he knew about this world
15
And then he traveled right on out of sight
16
And I'm just walkin' home tonight
17
I'm walkin' home tonight
18
The streets are glowing 'neath the pale moonlight
19
I look around, there's not a soul in sight
20
And I am walkin' home
21
Old worn-out couches and a bunch of kids
22
Four to a bedroom and all Mom's plates were chipped
23
But I never knew about the things I missed
24
And I'm walkin' home
25
You see, it's just the place where I come from
26
And, good or bad, it's where the deal was done
27
Mom and Dad, their daughters and their sons
28
And I'm just walkin' home tonight
29
I'm walkin' home tonight
30
The streets are glowing 'neath the pale moonlight
31
I look around, there's not a soul in sight
32
And I'm walkin' home
33
Once again I hear my mother's voice
34
And all us kids making a bunch of noise
35
If I'm not careful I might start to cry
36
Just walkin' home tonight
