[Intro: Brittany Howard]
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh (You'll live forever)
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
[Verse 1: Miley Cyrus]
Every day, every night, it's all the same
Hungry cries are callin' out my name
You beg me to stay but I walk away
Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame
Walk away, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Miley Cyrus & Brittany Howard]
(Desperation) Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Fascination) Yeah, the cars are bright and lightinin' up my face (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Captivation) Every day, every night, it's all the same (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Delusion) I walk the concrete like it's a stage (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
[Chorus: Miley Cyrus]
Ooh, yeah, it's a walk of fame
And through the tears, I can see it so clear
Walk away, walk away (Yeah, every time I walk, it's a walk of fame)
Ooh, yeah, it's a walk of fame
And through the mirror, I can see it so clear
Walk away, walk away
[Verse 2: Miley Cyrus]
Every night, looking for a place to hide
And you could be that somewhere, is that alright?
Yeah, I could grab my coat and head out towards the train
But every time I walk, it's a walk of fame
[Pre-Chorus: Miley Cyrus & Brittany Howard]
(Desperation) Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Fascination) Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Captivation) Every day, every night, it's all the same (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
(Delusion) I walk the concrete like it's a stage (Oh, oh, oh-oh)
[Chorus: Miley Cyrus]
Ooh, yeah, it's a walk of fame
And through the tears, I can see it so clear
Walk away, walk away (Yeah, every time I walk, it's a walk of fame)
Ooh, yeah, it's a walk of fame
And through the mirror, I can see it so clear
You walk away, walk away (Yeah, every time I walk, it's a walk of fame)
[Post-Chorus: Brittany Howard]
It's a walk of fame
[Bridge: Miley Cyrus, Brittany Howard]
Every time I walk, you start going insane
But I walk away, but I walk away
Every time I walk, you start going insane
But I walk away, but I walk away
Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame, yeah, yeah
It's a walk of fame (Ooh)
Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame (Keep up now, keep)
[Interlude: Miley Cyrus & Brittany Howard]
Ooh, yeah (Walk, walk, walk, walk)
Yeah (It's a walk of fame, it's a walk of fame)
(It's a walk of fame, it's a walk of fame)
(It's a walk of fame, it's a walk of fame)
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh
I walk the concrete like it's a stage
Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame
I walk the concrete, I walk the concrete, I walk the concrete
[Outro: Brittany Howard, Miley Cyrus & Brittany Howard]
You'll live forever in our hearts and minds
An ageless picture, a timeless smile
We'll wear it on our T-shirts, a star buried in the pavement
Everyone will walk around it, around it
You'll live forever, you'll live forever, you'll live forever
You'll live forever, you'll live forever
