The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door
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’ll 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 growing old with you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door
Da da-da da (da da-da da)
Da da-da da (da da-da da)
When I’m lonely, well I know I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be the man whose lonely without you
And when I’m dreamin’, well I know I’m gonna dream
I’m gonna dream about the times 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 to you
I’m gonna be the man who’s comin’ home to you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door
Da da-da da (da da-da da)
Da da-da da (da da-da da)
And I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door
