Songwriter: Peter Haycock
She was a lonely child
A country girl with the look of her mother
But inside, she was running wild
With a restless fire too hot to smother
She couldn't face what the future held
So she placed her bets on a ticket to fly
A free spirit with love for sale
To an endless line of passers-by
Night after night, she goes walking on Sunset
It's alright when she goes walking on Sunset
You try to make it in your own little way
But don't forget that there's a price you can pay
So go ahead, place your bets, I'll see you on Sunset
He's such a lonely man
Respectable, sober and neat
He says nobody seems to understand
When you work so hard and you get so beat
You've got to take it any way that you can
So he waits 'til dark and he heads for the street
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
It's alright when he's walking on Sunset
You try to make it in your own little way
But don't forget that there's a price you can pay
So go ahead, place your bets, I'll see you on Sunset
Go ahead, place your bets, I'll meet you on Sunset
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
Yeah, it's alright when he goes walking on Sunset
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
Yeah, it's alright when he goes walking on Sunset
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
A country girl with the look of her mother
But inside, she was running wild
With a restless fire too hot to smother
She couldn't face what the future held
So she placed her bets on a ticket to fly
A free spirit with love for sale
To an endless line of passers-by
Night after night, she goes walking on Sunset
It's alright when she goes walking on Sunset
You try to make it in your own little way
But don't forget that there's a price you can pay
So go ahead, place your bets, I'll see you on Sunset
He's such a lonely man
Respectable, sober and neat
He says nobody seems to understand
When you work so hard and you get so beat
You've got to take it any way that you can
So he waits 'til dark and he heads for the street
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
It's alright when he's walking on Sunset
You try to make it in your own little way
But don't forget that there's a price you can pay
So go ahead, place your bets, I'll see you on Sunset
Go ahead, place your bets, I'll meet you on Sunset
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
Yeah, it's alright when he goes walking on Sunset
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
Yeah, it's alright when he goes walking on Sunset
Night after night, he goes walking on Sunset
