Walkin' One And Only
Maria Muldaur
(Dan Hicks)
Some folks think it's cool to have some kind of lover.
He don't believe it's true, 'cause he just found another.
And when you see him, you might see him on the street,
He walks in rhythm, 'cause he's got some kind of beat.
He clicks his heels a bit;
His suit's a perfect fit.
He knocks 'em out,
And though he seems alone,
Somebody wants him on the phone.
They want to shout,
He's a walkin' one and only, and they're callin' him by name.
He won't be leavin' town till he can cop some fame.
They don't know what it takes, but it's the reason why
The girls all smile at him as he goes walkin' by
His walkin' ain't too fast;
He wants that thing to last.
Ain't into losing,
And though he seems alone
Somebody wants him on the phone.
Knows what he's doin':
He's a walkin' one and only, and you know that he's on fire.
Don't try to warn me, girl, 'cause he's my heart's desire.
You take your heroes and you put them up beside him;
It's no contest as the one and only rides in.
Ride in!
Walkin' one and only, and they're callin' him by name.
He won't be leavin' town till he can cop some fame.
His walkin' ain't too fast;
He wants that mother to last.
Ain't into losing,
And though he seems alone
Somebody wants him on the phone.
Knows what he's doin':
He's a walkin' one and only and you know that he's on fire.
Don't try to warn me, girls, 'cause he's my heart's desire.
You take your heroes and you put them up beside him;
It's no contest as the one and only rides in.
Ride in!
