I'm walkin' yes indeed I'm talking bout you and me
I'm hoppin' that you'll come to me
I'm lonely as I can be and I'm waitin' for your company
I'm hoppin' that you'll come back to me
What you gonna do when the well runs dry you're gonna run away and hide
I'm gonna run right by your side for you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin' yes indeed I'm talkin' about you and me
I'm hoppin' that you'll come to me

I'm walkin' walkin' yes indeed I'm talkin' talkin' about you and me
I'm hoppin' honey you'll come to me
I'm lonely as I can be I'm waitin' waitin' waitin' for your company
I'm hoppin' that you'll come back to Jerry Lee
Hey what you gonna do when the well runs dry you're gonna sit right down and cry
I'm gonna have you by my side for you pretty baby I'll even die
I'm walkin' yes indeed I'm talkin' bout you and me

Honey I'm walkin' and talking in my sleep
Walkin' walkin' oh yeah talkin' talkin' oh yeah hang it in
One more time
I'm walkin' walkin' walkin' talkin' talkin' talkin' yeah walkin' walkin' talkin' talkin'

Jerry Lee Lewis was a leading figure in the popularization of rock & roll during the 1950s. He was first signed to Sun Records in 1956 where he was labelmates with Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and other early rock artists. Of those musicians, however, he was the only piano player and combined with his heavy-handed playing style, sexually suggestive lyrics, and provocative stage antics he came to epitomize the rebelliousness of the genre.

He rose to international fame for his 1957 versions of the songs “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On.”

Lewis' popularity rapidly tumbled, however, when in 1958, when at the age of 22, he married his 13-year-old cousin. Though this scandal continued to tarnish his image, Lewis never retired from music. As of October 2015, he continues to perform live.
