500 MILES
by Proclaimers

When I wake up,
Well, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who wakes up _____to you.

When I go out,
Yeah, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who goes _____ with you.

If I get drunk,
Well, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who gets drunk _____to you.

And if I haver,
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_____ ,
Just to be the man
Who walked one ______ 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 _____ for you.

And when the ______ comes in
For the work I do,
I'll pass almost every penny on to you.
When I come home,
Oh, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who comes _____ home with you.

And if I grow _____,
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 _____,
Just to be the man
Who walked one _____ miles
To fall down at your door.

When I'm lonely,
Well, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who is lonely _____you.

And when I'm dreaming,
Well, I know I'm gonna dream,
I'm gonna dream about the _____
When I'm with you.

When I go out,
Well, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who goes _____ with you.

And when I come home,
Yes, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the man
Who comes _____ home with you,

I'm gonna be the man
Who is coming home with you.

But I would walk five hundred miles,
And I would walk five hundred _____ ,
Just to be the man
Who walked one _____miles
To fall down at your door.
