Can't Walk You Home Lyrics


Level 42 Can't Walk You Home

You're a rich girl we all know
daddy runs an airline,
mummy's eye is on the dough
and the butlers' on the bread-line

You're so bright you glide through school
brains run in the family
You've been taught the "how do you do"
and all your men are manly

I'm just a boy, not what you're used to

That is why I can't walk you home
that is why I can't walk you home
that is why I can't walk you home
that is why (Why) I can't walk you home

I don't want to run you down
I don't mind the money
but last time when you asked me round
you said I was funny

Pulling strings and pony tails
just to get to know me
The only time you'll ever fail
is when you try to own me

I'm not a toy, I'm no use to you

That is why I can't walk you home
that is why I can't walk you home
that is why I can't walk you home
that is why (Why) I can't walk you home

[Mike Solo]

I'm just a boy not what you're used to

That is why I can't walk you home
that is why I can't walk you home
that is why I can't walk you home
that is why (Why) I can't walk you home
