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
