Lyrics:

1974
Writer(s): Willie Nelson

After carefully considerin' the whole situation
I stand with my back to the wall
Walkin' is better than runnin' away
And crawlin' ain't no good at all.

If guilty's the question, truth is the answer
I've been lyin' to me all alone
There ain't nothin' worth savin' except one another
And before you'll wake up I'll be gone.

'Cause after carefully considerin' the whole situation
And I stand with my back to the wall
Walkin' is better than runnin' away
And crawlin' ain't no good at all.

Mhm, mhm, walkin' is better than runnin' away
And crawlin' ain't no good at all
