Waylon Jennings - Walkin'
Lyrics

After carefully considerin' the whole situation
I stand with my back to the wall
Walkin' is better than runnin' away
And crawlin' ain't no good at all.
If guilty's the question, truth is the answer
I've been lyin' to me all alone
There ain't nothin' worth savin' except one another
And before you'll wake up I'll be gone.
'Cause after carefully considerin' the whole situation
And I stand with my back to the wall
Walkin' is better than runnin' away
And crawlin' ain't no good at all.
Mhm, mhm, walkin' is better than runnin' away
And crawlin' ain't no good at all...
Triva

Walkin', from Waylon's 1974 album, was featured on his son Shooter Jennings' show on February, 17, 2013. The obscure tracks on albums of old are like finding treasure in a sunken ship. In spite of Shooter's divergent musical taste and style, he's reverent and respectful of his father. To this observer, it's refreshing and honorable.
