Lyrics

Well I know I'm gonna be  
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you, (who?)  
If I get drunk, (If I get drunk, ) well I know I'm gonna be  
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you, (yeah) Yes!  
And if I haver, (when I hav... What does haver mean, )  
Yeah I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you, (It's on
'ere)  
  
But 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  
  
When I'm working, (when I'm working, )  
Yes I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you,
(shake a ka)  
And when the money, (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),  
I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you  
And when 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  
  
(Now! )  
But 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  
  
Da da lat da (Da da lat da)  
Da da lat da (Da da lat da)  
... etc. x2  
  
(Lou - Ladies and Gentlemen, The Proclaimers)  
  
When I'm lonely, well I know I'm gonna be  
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you  
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, )  
Yeah 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 walked a thousand miles  
To fall down at your door  
  
Da da lat da (Da da lat da)  
Da da lat da (Da da lat da)  
... Etc... x5  
  
Da da lat da (Bobby Davro)  
Da da lat da (Bobby Davro)  
... Etc...  
  
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
