Some folks say it's cool To have some kind of lover He don't believe it's true Cause he just found another And when you see him You might see him on the street He walks with a rhythm Cause he's got some kind of beat
He clicks his heels a bit His suit's a perfect fit He knocks ‘em out And although he seems alone Somebody wants him on the phone He knows what he's doing
CHORUS: He's the walkin' one and only And they're calling him by name He won't be leaving town Til he can cop some fame They don't know what it takes And that's the reason why The girls all smile at him As he goes passing by
His walkin' ain't too fast He wants that thing to last Hated to lose him Although he seems alone Somebody wants him on the phone They want to shout
He's the walkin' one and only And you know that he's on fire So don't you try to warn me, girls Cause he's my heart's desire You can take your heroes And you put them up beside him There ain't no contest He's the one and only right in
