《 The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) 》

《 The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) 》

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

I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next 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 up, yeah I know I'm gonna be

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

But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles

To fall down at your door

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

I'm gonna be the man who's working 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) well I know I'm gonna be

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

And if I grow-old (when 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 walks a thousand miles

To fall down at your door

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da dun diddle un diddle un diddle uh da

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da dun diddle un diddle un diddle uh da

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 dreaming, 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 coming home with you

But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walks a thousand miles

To fall down at your door

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da dun diddle un diddle un diddle uh da

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da dun diddle un diddle un diddle uh da

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da dun diddle un diddle un diddle uh da

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da dun diddle un diddle un diddle uh da

And I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles

To fall down at your door
