Walking on a Tightrope Lyrics


You can slam the door and walk from here to Georgia
You can burn old friends 'til one by one they fall
You can spend your last thin dime
Tryin' to make yourself feel fine
You can cry through every story
But I've heard them allOh, when no one's sleeping in your empty bedroom
And the clock is ticking down the darkened hall
You can say you've always been blue
But I know that just ain't true
But when you're walking on a tightrope
I won't let you fall
When you're walking on a tightrope
Baby, I won't let you fallYou may have never loved me like you ought to
You may have hung up every time I called
You can walk from here to Georgia
But just don't slam the door
'Cause when you're walking on a tightrope
I won't let you fall

When you're walking on that tightrope
When you're walking on a tightrope
Baby, I won't let you fall

William Bell was one of the finest of the Stax/Volt soul artists. Like Otis Redding, he was able to tell a story with great sincerity and flawless musicality. His song "You Don't Miss Your Water ('Til Your Well Runs Dry)" is a Memphis masterpiece.
