Some people do it when they're feeling blue
Some people do it when they've got nothing to do
Lovers like to do it on a midnight stroll
And a gambling man will do it when he loses his roll

He'll do the slow walk
He'll do the slow walk
You don't do a lot of thinking, you don't talk a lotta talk
You just shuffle them feet and you do the slow walk

Well a man will learn to do it if he's stayed out all night
And he knows he headed home-he's in trouble all right
A prisoner learns to do it when he loses that appeal
And he knows he's when he's through when chewing up that last meal

He'll do the slow walk
He'll do the slow walk
You don't do a lot of thinking you don't talk a lotta talk
You just shuffle them feet and you do the slow walk

Well a juvenile delinquent's got a crowbar in the door
Feels tapping on his shoulder, Faces 7 years or more
That new kids in town got it bad for Betty Lou
But little does he know is that all he'll get to do is

He'll do the slow walk
He'll do the slow walk
You don't do a lot of thinking you don't talk a lotta talk
You just shuffle them feet and you do the slow walk

You do the slow walk
Do the slow walk
You don't do a lot of thinking, you don't talk a lotta talk
You just shuffle them feet and you do the slow walk

You do the slow walk
Do the slow walk
You don't do a lot of thinking you don't talk a lotta talk
You just shuffle them feet and you do the slow walk

Bonnie Tyler

Bonnie Tyler (born Gaynor Hopkins) was born on June 8, 1951 in Skewen, Wales. She was one of the most famous singers in the 80’s and is known for her noticeably rough and husky vocals.

Her first single, charting at #9 in her home country, “Lost In France,” put her in the public eye. After a bit of silence throughout the late 70s and early 80s, her best-selling and best-performing single on the charts of all time, “Total Eclipse of The Heart,” was released. Her 5th album, Faster Than The Speed of Night, also topped the charts in a few countries possibly because it contained Total Eclipse. Another notable song, “Holding Out for a Hero,” was released one year later for the Footloose soundtrack.

Tyler married Robert Sullivan, an Olympic judo contestant in 1973. They have no children. As of 2018, she is 66 years old and still in good health.
