Jaywalk by Abbi Wharton

Jaywalk

There is a road ‘tween you and me.

I don’t like it as you’ll see.

How did it get here?

Why is it near?

This road keeps me away.

This road keeps me at bay.

Did you put it there?

Do you wish me to beware?

There is no crosswalk.

All I see is a roadblock.

Does your heart hurt?

Are you ‘fraid of getting burnt?

All I have to say-

is I’ll get to you anyway.

Baby you can’t keep me away.

This road won’t keep me at bay.

No crosswalk to you?

I’ll jaywalk! It’s true!

I’m gonna jaywalk myself right over to you.

I’m gonna make you woo.

‘Cause baby, I love you.

It’s true.

I’ll jaywalk this road ‘tween me and you.

Inspired by some old songs by Fats Domino that I listened to the other day...I'm Walkin and Blueberry Hill
