about

Walk the Walk is the first single from No Trombones Featuring LiL. This song is inspired by the idea that people make a lot of promises they don’t keep. In the song’s story, a little girl is abandoned by her mom for some sweet-talking man that in the end treats the mom very badly. The song reminds us that we should Walk the Walk and not Talk the Talk.

CREDITS:
Vocals: LiL, Guitars: Rick Vincent, Horns: Misha Ruhr, Ted Buehrer, Mix: Yoad Nevo.

lyrics

LYRICS:

When I was little my momma said to me
Without your momma what would your life be?
Two weeks later I was sitting on the floor
She said goodbye forever and stepped out the door

Walk the walk
Don’t talk the talk
Walk the walk
Don’t just talk the talk
Don’t try to sell me
what you ain’t gonna do

A man tells lies and people believe
Sometimes I think we would rather be deceived
Than face the truth that’s buried deep
We just follow the preacher, just like a bunch of sheep.

Walk the walk
Don’t talk the talk
Walk the walk
Don’t just talk the talk
Don’t try to sell me
what you ain’t gonna do

Hey you, what you going to do?
To make those words, finally come out true
I’m not here to make you care
Just know that broken words will always be there

There’s that man that promised forever
There’s that woman he promised to treasure
She's black & blue lying on the floor
She should've never, ever headed out that door

Walk the walk
Don’t talk the talk
Walk the walk
Don’t just talk the talk
Don’t try to sell me
what you ain’t gonna do
Don’t try to sell me
what you ain’t gonna do
