Lyrics Walkin' Daddy - Greg Brown

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
