Got my shoes from the Salvation Army
Got my hat from a kind hearted friend
Hocked my watch at a pawn shop in Buffalo
For a bottle of wine and a flea bitten bed
When the sun comes up in the morning
And the wine in my bottle goes down
Put my shoes on my feet and my hat on my head
And go walking back to Birmingham
Got a three acre farm and a catfish pond
And a smoke house filled with country ham
Well this thousand miles of road won't seem too far to go
Cause I'm walking back to Birmingham
When the sun comes up in the morning...
And go walking back to Birmingham
I go walking back to Birmingham
Walking back to Birmingham
