30 blocks to Fordham Road, 
That's a bad neighborhood, 
Gray house on the corner, 
I know I shouldn't do what it is I could.
The stone Mary in the garden, 
She let me know she watching, 
She said I better get walking, 
I better walk away.
I don't know why it is that I wanna stay, 
I don't know what it is that makes me feel this way, 
But I'm not gonna do what I hear me say, 
I'm just gonna walk, 
I'm gonna walk away.
I catch a dollar in the wind and I buy a cup of coffee, 
There's a place on Valentine that still charge ninety cent.
I keep on walking in the daytime and in my eyes it's always night time, 
And I like it when it's me at night, 
'Cause that's when all the stars come out.
I don't know why it is that I wanna stay, 
I don't know what it is that makes me feel this way, 
But I'm not gonna do what I hear me say, 
I'm just gonna walk, 
I'm gonna walk away.
It's the greatest, 
It's the greatest day.
It's the greatest, 
It's the greatest day.
I'm not gonna do what I hear me say, 
I'm just gonna walk, 
I'm gonna walk away.
