That Beat

Amy Lavere

Compositor: Carla Thomas

I went walking along the highway
Lost in a trance, as I went on my way
I heard a back beat
That weird, weird beat
Everywhere I put my feet

Oh it all started about a week ago
When my lover told me, he said
'Well baby, you gotta go'
I heard a back beat
That weird, weird beat
Everywhere I put my feet

It was the beat of sorrow
It was the beat of the moon
I know I'll be here tomorrow
If I don't find another love soon

So I keep walk-walk-walking, walk-walk-walk-walking down the highway
Lost in a trance, as I went on my way
I heard a back beat
That weird, weird beat
Everywhere I put my feet

So I went walking along the highway
Lost in a trance, as I went on my way
And I heard a back beat
That weird, weird beat
Everywhere I put my feet

Oooh, trouble, he gives me nothing but trouble
Trouble, trouble, he keeps disturbing my sleep
Oooh, trouble he give me nothing but trouble
Trouble, trouble, he gives me nothing but trouble
