Walkin’ Out West (remastered) Songtext
von Lee Kernaghan

Footsteps lead me warily through the old screen door
And onto the verandah across those weathered boards
Sad memories dwell behind me like an overstayin′ guest
So I've packed my swag, and I′m walkin' out west

Well, I went on past the tank stand beyond the backyard gate
Hopin' one day that my sorrow would somehow dissipate
I need time to think things over, how long I couldn′t guess
So I′ve packed my swag, and I'm walkin′ out west


Yeah, out there in the distance where the desert flowers bloom
Maybe I'll get over losin′ you
And my restless heart must wander 'til I′ve put the pain to rest
Until then, I'll just keep walkin' out west

Well, you′ll find me on some highway or lonely railroad track
The burden of my sorrow riding on my back
There′ll be no homeward footsteps 'til I put the past to rest
Until then, I′ll just keep walkin' out west
Until then, I′ll just keep walkin' out west

Yeah, my restless heart must wander ′til I've put the pain to rest
Until then, I'll just keep walkin′ out west
Until then, I′ll just keep walkin' out west
