Warwick, Dionne - Walk The Way You Talk Lyrics






Just because you said things have got to change
They won't go away
Nothing goes away
Not unless you do the things you promised to
So walk the way you talk and talk the way you walk

Saying something's wrong isn't good enough
That won't make it right
Gotta make it right
And the only way is doing what you say
So walk the way you talk and talk the way you walk

There's nothing that's so bad that leaving it alone
Just doesn't make it worse
Time won't wait
Maybe tomorrow it may be too late
Don't just stand alone on a mountain top
Join the world today
Do it right away
Don't you know that you are only what you do
So walk the way you talk and talk the way you walk

Don't you know that you are only what you do
So walk the way you talk and talk the way you walk

  9. J.... S....

    Shining by DJ Khaled brought me here...Great ear, Khaled!

  10. S.... P....

    Its Dionne Warwick's song FIRST!!!✔💯

  11. A.... C....

    Bruh this is the clearest voice I've ever heard

  12. D.... H....

    I think we're forgetting that DJ KHALED wrote and produced the track... Jay-Z and Beyoncé just rapped and sang on it. But this song is a classic!!! I love Dionne!!!

  13. A.... C....

    Another one

  14. L.... C....

    I'm glad I found the original!

  15. S.... ....

    Listen to Osunlade - Dionne, it's better sampled then Khaled version..

  16. D.... C....

    DJ Khalid brought me here and I'm loving.

  17. Z.... T....

    Ole School. Y'all Youngins Fall Back. 😂😂😂

  18. M.... D....

    Also check out Osunlade Dionne that's the sample in Shining

  19. c.... e....

    childish gambibo riot

  20. P.... ....

    Such an odd Range and melody used for this song. Not everyone could sing this easily.

    P.... ....

    Agreed! Sergio Mendes and Brasil *77* 😉 tried in 1973. Not bad but couldn't compete with the original.

  21. D.... J....

    Shining shining shining shining yeahhhh

  22. C.... B....

    I'm so glad Jay Z and Beyonce sampled this wonderful song. I LOVE DIONNE!!!! Shining is a boss track today!

    C.... B....

    Cheryl Berger 👍👍👍👍👍

    C.... B....

    Actually osunlade sampled this song, then dj khalid added a little something then asked jay and bey to sing and rap to it. But yes I agree that Dionne and shining and shining is a bomb song too.

    C.... B....

    💜💜

  23. Z.... T....

    Mother Fuckers No What Time It Is. Old School Rules.

  24. c.... ....

    is it me or does she flub the lyric in the first chorus? every other time she says "walk the way you talk" but the first time she says "walk the way you walk"...the producers rightly assumed no one would care...

    c.... ....

    I noticed that too!

  25. A.... C....

    Had to drill down to get to this one. Soul is sample rich.

  26. R.... M....

    Dionne Warwick >>> beyonce

    R.... M....

    Bitch please

  27. D.... H....

    Osunlade Dionne is the actual loop on Shining.. sampled from this track

    D.... H....

    Exactly. And Khalid just put a beat to it.

    D.... H....

    @Michele Starks he barely did that.

  28. L.... ....

    Authentic!

  29. C.... X....

    I love tracking samples and finding great music

    C.... X....

    CHRISTI XX glad im not the only one

    C.... X....

    Yes me too I'm glad I'm not the only one

    C.... X....

    CHRISTI XX I agree 100%...This is such a beautiful song

    C.... X....

    kilo kish

    C.... X....

    Swear me n my cousin live fa that shit lol

  30. m.... ....

    the hardest sample ever?

    m.... ....

    muggledon1 not even close

  31. a.... ....

    I'm glad Beyoncé, Jay Z, and DJ Khalid introduced me to this tbh

    a.... ....

    Yassss!!

    a.... ....

    Me too! :)

    a.... ....

    Never heard their version, just know Osunlande's version.

  32. l.... m....

    Since shining introduced me to this song, I've been listening them nonstop, both are amazing in their own ways!

    l.... m....

    sh00keth Exactly

    l.... m....

    THE WAIT IS OVER!

    l.... m....

    la miki minach same here

    l.... m....

    Listen to OSUNLADE.... Dionne

  33. L.... ....

    Go Dionne! SHINING......

  34. G.... ....

    Jay-Z & Beyonce -The Shining

    G.... ....

    this is better and original then that bullshit

    G.... ....

    Actually the rip off that Jay Z did was from Osunlade- dionne.

    G.... ....

    Nathan Kilcourse Actually it's really DJ Khalid that ripped it from another song that rips off of of this one. He then asked Beyonce and Jay-Z to be on the song and both songs are amazing. This one and DJ Khalid feat Bey X Jay-Z - Shining. Bey and Jay had some good lyrics that seemed personal and in some ways relatable.

    G.... ....

    Latrell Wigfall no dude. Check your facts. Trust me and go do the same. Osunlade -Dionne.

    G.... ....

    Nathan Kilcourse lol! That's what I said. All I was saying is it's really DJ Khalid's song and I said he ripped it from another song that samples this one. It's not Bey and Jay's song. They are guests on DJ Khalid's song.

  35. c.... ....

    SIMPLEMENTE , BELLO.

  36. z.... r....

    personal all time fav of mine

  37. p.... ....

    This song has a smooth melodic sound. This is yet another fine melody by Bacharach. Dionne Warwick seems to have sung the Bacharach David songbook. One of the best team ups in music history.
