Walk Of Life Lyrics

Lyric discussion by jcfields 

Cover art for Walk Of Life lyrics by Dire Straits

In the live version on On the Night, Mark changes the last "I Gotta Woman" to "Bony Moronie," which Lennon also covered on Rock and Roll. And of course, these are all songs Lennon grew up listening to and being inspired by.

As others have pointed out, the song is clearly about Lennon. What hasn't been mentioned yet is that the line, "down in the tunnels," is a reference to the Cavern Club, where the Beatles honed their craft, playing there over 200 times.
