Oh, never mind that
I'm gonna go downtown
I've got a 2 dollar bill
And a girl who hangs around

Well, it's a slow walk
Oh, it's a slow walk
Oh, it's a slow walk
From the bottom to the top

Now my old man says
I ain't been the same
Since the bad I'm feeling
Got into my brain

Well, it's a slow walk
It's a slow walk
Oh, it's a slow walk
From the bottom to the top

You stick the needle in your arm
And your baby starts crying
You stick the needle in your arm
Well, there ain't no denying

That it's a slow walk
It's a slow walk
Oh, it's a slow walk
From the bottom to the top

Now I ain't as bright
As the Sun when it shines
When you say you forgive me
Start to believe that it's a lie
It's a lie, oh, it's a lie

Oh, but never mind that
I'm gonna go downtown
I've got a 2 dollar bill
And a girl that hangs around

Well, it's a slow walk
It's a slow walk
Oh, it's a slow walk
From the bottom to the top
