They used to hear me coming a mile from the door To feed that old jukebox and wear out the floor Now friends hardly notice that I'm still around I'm stepping softly through my old stompin' grounds I had a reputation for raising the roof Sky was the limit till she said we are through Ain't it funny how a heartache can bring a man down I'm stepping softly through my old stompin' grounds I'm tiptoeing, slowly going out of my mind My snakeskin's sneaking in a step at a time I used to kick my heels up Till she kicked me out Now I'm stepping softly through my old stompin' grounds I'm out here every night on this honky tonk beat Resurrecting my pride and resting my feet Healing won't come easy when you're this far down Yeah I'm stepping softly through my old stompin' grounds I'm tiptoeing, slowly going out of my mind...
