Mayer Hawthorne - The Walk (Unreleased Music Video) // How Do You Do

Mayer Hawthorne - Videos & Lyrics

Mayer Hawthorne

"Back in 2011 “The Walk” was struttin all over the charts but VH1 (the only remaining place that played music videos on TV) wouldn’t play my video because it was “too violent.” So we shot a (slightly) less violent video which they didn’t love either so it was shelved, never to be seen. To celebrate the 10 year anniversary of my sophomore album “How Do You Do,” I present to you the long lost alternative music video directed by Ross Harris and Hank DeMaio, and starring Zulay Henao. The success of this album continues to blow my mind. Thank you all so much for a decade of love and sing-a-longs. ❤️" - Mayer Hawthorne

Featuring Zulay
Directed and Edited by: Ross Harris and Hank DeMaio
Director of Photography: Richard Hama

Lyrics:
So long you did me wrong,
So long you did me wrong.
Baby whatcha doin’ now?
You’re pissin’ me off,
But your hair is so luxurious,
And your lips are so soft,
Any way you slice it,
You’re doin’ me wrong,
But I love the way you walk now,
And your legs are so long,

Well, your looks had me putty in your hand now,
But I’ve took just as much as I can stand now,
And you can walk your long legs, baby,
right out of my life.
(So long you did me wrong)
Yeah you can walk your long legs, baby,
Right out of my life.
(So long you did me wrong)

From the moment that I met you,
I thought you were fine, so fine,
But your shitty, fucking attitude,
Has got me changing my mind.
Everybody tells me, I need to let go, I know,
But your cocoa butter skin now,
Has got me begging for more.

Well your heels keep runnin’ through my head now,
Tried to deal, but I’m comin’ to the edge now,
And you can walk those high heels, baby,
Right out of my life.

(So long you did me wrong)
Yeah you can walk those high heels, baby,
Right out of my life.
(So long you did me wrong)

Tell me why,
Why’d you turn my blue skies cloudy grey,
You know I,
I can’t let you keep treating me this way,

Oh, you’ve been jerkin’ me around, but,
I’ve kept my eyes shut,
‘cause you’re shaped like an hourglass,
but I think your time’s up,

Well your heart’s like a blackened piece of coal now,
And I doubt that you ever had a soul now,
And you can walk your cold heart, baby,
Right out of my life.
(So long you did me wrong)
Yeah you can walk your cold heart, baby,
Right out of my life.
(So long you did me wrong)

Just walk it out,
(So long you did me wrong)
Keep on walkin’ now,
(So long you did me wrong)
Leave me alone,
(So long you did me wrong)
I’m better off on my own.
(So long you did me wrong)
