"I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" lyrics
(originally by The Proclaimers)
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
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 every single penny on 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 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
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 dun da dun diddle un
Da dun diddle un da da
Da da da da
Da da da da
Da dun da dun diddle un
Da dun diddle un da da
When I come home oh I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home to you
And when I grow old well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you
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

When I go out yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
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 every single penny on to you
But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more

And when I'm dreaming well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
But I would walk 500 miles
