[Chorus]
It's a walk, walk of shame
Walk, walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
[Verse 1]
Slid my arm out from under her pillow
Tiptoed, grabbed a yellow notepad and left my work phone
Shuffled step, step, to the front door
Squeaking and creaking the floors
Snuck out with no remorse
Drizzling bits of dribble on the biggest little city
Lingering in the middle of Virginia Street
Blowing on my nails, rubbing them across my chest
My urban version of banging my fists to show I'm the best
[Chorus]
'Cause it's a walk, walk of shame
Walk, walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
[Post-Chorus]
"Your black book indexed by
Positions of sex, I
Hope you wrote my name on the list
With an asterisk next to my address"
My black book indexed by
Positions of sex, I
Wrote down your name on the list
With an asterisk next to your address
[Verse 2]
Showed up late to work the following day
My co-workers howling at my inconspicuous face
It doesn't happen often, but, boy, when I get laid
The curse of my conscience gets worse every day
Pink in the cheeks 'cause of the pink in the sheets
Ain't easy being lucky 'cause I ain't been lucky for weeks
It's a walk, walk of shame but I've been here before
What's another notch on the belt when nobody's keeping score?
[Chorus]
It's a walk, walk of shame
Walk, walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
[Post-Chorus]
"Your black book indexed by
Positions of sex, I
Hope you wrote my name on the list
With an asterisk next to my address"
My black book indexed by
Positions of sex, I
Wrote down your name on the list
With an asterisk next to your address
[Verse 3]
Three weeks went by, no call, no sign
She told me she was late and it was probably mine
She said she'd thinking 'bout a hanger to do the dirty work
I told her I'd give her cash, she told me I was a jerk
Well, what you want? What you need?
She said, "Meet me at Ray's
8 o'clock, and don't even think about being late"
[Chorus]
It's a walk, walk of shame
Walk, walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
It's a walk, walk of shame
[Post-Chorus]
"Your black book indexed by
Positions of sex, I
Know you wrote my name on the list
With an asterisk next to my address"
My black book indexed by
Positions of sex, I
Wrote down your name on the list
With an asterisk next to your address
With an asterisk next to your address
With an asterisk next to your address
