If You're Gonna Walk, I'm Gonna Crawl
Love's Desperation: Crawling When You Walk Away
Lyrics
I'm a Monday night football, Friday night pool hall guy
I embrace a lifestyle of enjoying Monday night football and spending Friday nights in pool halls.
I ain't never been one to let a good time pass me by
I don't miss out on opportunities to have a good time.
You're standin' there statin' you're tired of waitin'
You express impatience, stating you're tired of waiting.
My celebratin's gratin' on you
My celebrations are annoying or bothersome to you.
If you feel that way if it'll make you stay
If you're feeling that way and it will make you stay, I have a plan.
Well here's what I'm gonna do
I will do something to address your concerns and keep you around.
If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl
If you decide to leave, I'll be willing to humble myself and endure difficulties.
You'll see how low a man can go
You'll witness the extent to which a man can lower himself.
When his back's against the wall
Especially when faced with challenging situations.
I'll be grovelin' in the gravel
I'll be pleading and begging.
If you make that taxi call
If you decide to call a taxi and leave.
If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl
If you choose to walk away, I'll be willing to crawl to keep you.
You're a one man pure gold genuine good ol' girl
You're a genuine, good-hearted girl.
You've been waitin' on me to get tired of my neon world
You've patiently waited for me to grow tired of my wild and flashy lifestyle.
Now the turn you've taken has got me shakin'
Your recent actions or decisions have left me feeling shaken.
It's a heart breakin' wake up call
It's a heartbreaking realization for me, a wake-up call.
Now I'm seein' how you see me
Now I understand how you perceive me.
And I feel about shoe top tall
I feel extremely small and insignificant.
If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl
If you choose to walk away, I'll be willing to crawl to keep you.
You'll see how low a man can go
You'll witness the extent to which a man can lower himself.
When his back's against the wall
Especially when faced with challenging situations.
I'll be grovelin' in the gravel
I'll be pleading and begging.
If you make that taxi call
If you decide to call a taxi and leave.
If you're gonna walk, I'm gonna crawl
If you choose to walk away, I'll be willing to crawl to keep you.
