One Foot On The Path Lyrics

You say, "Come over baby, Come talk to me"
Then you drive me so crazy
I can't hardly see
If this keeps goin' on
I might just leave and not come back
I got one foot in your doorway
I got one foot on the path

Well you beg me to stay
Then you order me to go
All this up and down
Is wear and tear on my soul
I'm wonderin' if our future
Is gonna look just like our past
I got one foot in your doorway
I got one foot on the path

Now I love you, baby
Don't get me wrong
But this heart of mine
May not be that strong
You got me on your line
Reel me in or throw me back
I got one foot in your doorway
I got on foot on the path

You'd best thing about it, baby
But don't take too long
If we can't get it right
I'll just be movin' on
I can't wait forever
For us to get this thing on track
I got one foot in your doorway, baby
I got on foot on the path

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's pretty obvious what this song is about. Man, I love this song. I was in this same situation a few months back, my foot ended up going down the path. Me and my guitar teacher were just jamming to this song at lessons 2 days ago, Kenny is a great guitarists but I especially love his older stuff like this. I reccomend listening to his instrumental "While We Cry".
