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 [bad word] 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 [bad word] ..

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
