(I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles Lyrics


When I wake up, yeah 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 youAnd If I get drunk, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, whatever that means
I'm gonna be the man who's havering to youBut I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
to be the man who walked a 1,000 miles
To fall down at your doorWhen I'm working, yeah 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'll do
I'll pass almost every penny on to youWhen I come home, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you
And if I grow old, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with youAnd I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
to be the man who walked a 1,000 miles

To fall down at your doorSurrenderWhen I'm lonely, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
When I'm dreaming, yes I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with youAnd if I get drunk, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, whatever the fuck that means
I'm gonna be the man who havers next to youAnd I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
to be the man who walked a 1,000 miles
To fall down at your doorSurrenderWhen I'm lonely, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely.Cause I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
to be the man who walked a 1,000 miles
To fall down at your door
Surrender, surrender, surrender!

MxPx is a punk rock band that was formed in 1992 in Bremerton, Washington, United States.

MxPx started as three 15-year-old kids calling themselves Magnified Plaid pounding out music inspired by and similar to The Descendents and other Southern California pop-punk bands. They didn’t really love their band name, however, which was a tribute to the original guitarist’s penchant for wearing one particularly loud plaid shirt. Consequently, the name was abbreviated to M.P., but in Yuri’s handwriting, periods become “X“‘s and since he made up the show posters for the band, the four-letter moniker stuck.

Andy Husted, the former guitarist, left the band in 1995 to continue college.

Andy was replaced by Tom to solidify the line-up that would take the band into their post-teen years. Maybe Tom’s background as a drummer made up for his relative inexperience playing guitar (he had only played for a year at the time). He and Yuri lock into backbreakingly fast rhythms that rank with vintage Minor Threat for speed and percussive attack. Mike then adds to the mix his signature sing-along melodies that call to mind SoCal punk bands from the early ’80s.

Bremerton had been a town most famous for its naval shipyards until MxPx caught the attention of Tooth & Nail Records when they played a “showcase” for the T&N label in 1993 in Herrera’s parents’ garage. Mike Herrera had practiced so much before the first show, he lost his voice.

MxPx released three albums with Tooth & Nail Records: Pokinatcha in 1994, Teenage Politics in 1995, and Life in General in 1996. After a falling out with Tooth & Nail, MxPx left the label and signed with A&M Records.

In July 2010 drummer Yuri Ruley announced he would be retiring from the band to focus on his family. Ruley played his last show with the band in Las Vegas, Nevada on July 18, 2010. In a recent video message from Mike, he stated that Tom and Yuri have both finished touring full time, but will continue to play one-off shows with the band.
