I heard that you're leavin - this sleepy little town

The bright lights must have caught your eye cuz you ain't hangin' round

Ya know people been talkin' - they say you're makin' a mistake

Gotta get on that greyhound and forget about what they say

Just walk on by - walk on by

Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high

Just walk on by

I've heard bad things about the city and I'm told that they're true

Better watch out for those guys out there they're gonna hit on you

So don't talk to no strangers - no it ain't your style

Don't give up when the chips are down - just turn around and smile

Just walk on by - walk on by

Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high

Just walk on by - ya walk on

You're old enough to know why - you're old enough to know why

Now you're standing at the station - got a ticket in your hand

Guess you got you're mind made up - gotta get out while you can

Don't say I never told ya - now the rest is up to you

Those streets can be like a battlefield - when it's hard to make it thru...

Just walk on by - walk on by

Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high

Just walk on by

Walk on by - walk on by

You're a little bit lonely you're a little bit shy

Just walk on by

Walk on by - walk on by

Don't look over your shoulder - keep your head up high

Just walk on by

Walk on by - walk on by

You're a little bit lonely you're a little bit shy

Just walk on by
