[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, I felt around for my shoes
That's when I knew I had them walkin' blues
I woke up this morning, looked around, and I felt around for my shoes
That's when I knew I had them old, mean old walkin' blues

[Verse 2]
Feel most like blowin' my lonesome horn
Woke up this mornin', what I had was gone
Gonna leave, leave my old lonesome home
Woke up this mornin', what I had was gone
What I had was gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Some people tell you the walkin' blues ain't bad
Worst old feelin' anyone's ever had
Don't let 'em tell you that the walkin' blues ain't so bad
Worst old feelin' I've most ever had
Ever had

[Verse 4]
Leaving in the mornin' if I have to ride the blind
Well, I've been mistreated and I don't mind dyin'
I wanna leave, even if I have to ride the blind
Well, I've been mistreated and I, and I don't mind dyin'
And I don't mind, and I don't mind
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
She got the Elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Breaking on a dollar 'most anywhere she goes
She got a Elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Breaking on a dollar 'most anywhere she goes, anywhere she goes

[Verse 6]
And I woke up this morning and I felt around for my shoes
That's when I knew I had them old walkin' blues
I woke up this morning, I looked around, and I felt around for my shoes
That's when I knew I had them old, mean old walkin' blues

[Outro]
Walkin' blues, walkin' blues, walkin' blues, walkin' blues
Walkin' blues, walkin' blues, walkin' blues, walkin' blues
Walkin' blues, walkin' blues, walkin' blues, walkin' blues
Walkin' blues
