Walking With the Kid Lyrics

We're going out on Sunday Afternoon
We're gonna show the world what were made of
Me & my buddy will be dressed to kill

We'll cruise to the playground & the park
Gonna fool around 'til it gets dark
If you think we'll have some fun well you know we will
All of our secrets
You know we're gonna keep 'em hid
When we get home they'll want to know
Everything we did

Walking with the kid
Walking with the kid

We're known around the neighborhood
Yeah we got a real reputation
The bad guys all respect us 'cause we're family

We're not afraid of anything at all
Cause we can handle any situation
If my partner gets in trouble well it's up to me
All our friends are envious
Though they'll never let it show
Sure enough later on
Everyone's just gotta know
What we were
What we did

Walking with the kid
Walking with the kid

Walking, talking one on one
Walking, walking with my son

Cover art for Walking With the Kid lyrics by Huey Lewis and the News

Pretty straight forward lyrics, but to me it's about a fantasy of being a perfect father with a perfect relationship with his son, impressing everyone in the neighborhood including the bad guys.

It's very beautiful cause when having a son the expectations are very high and the dream of fulfilling them is very legitimate and poetic.
