When I wake up, 

well I know I’m gonna be,

I’m gonna be the man 

who wakes up next you.

When I go out, 

yeah I know I’m gonna be,

I’m gonna be the man 

who goes along with you

If I get drunk, 

well I know I’m gonna be,

I’m gonna be the man

who gets drunk next to you.

And if I haver up, 

yeah I know I’m gonna be,

I’m gonna be the man 

who’s havering to you.

But I would walk five hundred miles

and I would walk five hundred more

just to be the man who walks a thousand

miles to fall down at your door.

When I’m working, 

yes 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 do

I’ll pass almost 

every penny on to you.

When I come home 

well 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 you.

But I would walk five hundred miles

and I would walk five hundred more

just to be the man who walks a thousand

miles to fall down at your door.

Da da da...

When I’m lonely, 

well I know I’m gonna be,

I’m gonna be the man 

who’s lonely without you.

And 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, 

well I know I’m gonna be,

I’m gonna be the man

who goes along with you.

And when I come home,

yes 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 five hundred miles

and I would walk five hundred more

just to be the man who walks a thousand

miles to fall down at your door.

Da da da...
