[Verse 1]

When I wake up, well, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you

When I go out, yeah, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

If I get drunk, well, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you

And if I haver, yeah, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's haverin' to you

[Chorus]

But I would walk five hundred miles

And I would walk five hundred more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand

Miles to fall down at your door

[Verse 2]

When I'm workin', yes, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's workin' hard for you

And when the money comes in for the work I do

I'll pass almost every penny on to you

When I come home (When I come home), oh, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

And if I grow old, well, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's growin' old with you

[Chorus]

But I would walk five hundred miles

And I would walk five hundred more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand

Miles to fall down at your door

[Post-Chorus]

Da-da da da (Da-da da da)

Da-da da da (Da-da da da)

Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da

Da-da da da (Da-da da da)

Da-da da da (Da-da da da)

Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da

[Verse 3]

When I'm lonely, well, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you

And when I'm dreamin', well, I know I'm gonna dream

I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you

When I go out (When I go out), well, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

And when I come home (when I come home), yes, I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you

I'm gonna be the man who's comin' home with you

[Chorus]

But I would walk five hundred miles

And I would walk five hundred more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand

Miles to fall down at your door

[Post-Chorus]

[Chorus]

And I would walk five hundred miles

And I would walk five hundred more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand

Miles to fall down at your door
