This is a saying in English:
depressed state of mind + blues
Walking = the way we walk in the depressing sate of mind.
So it �s walking blues = I knew that I needed to walk around all day in a depressed state of mind (the blues) or in an effort to ease/lighten/alleviate a depressed state of mind.
REDBULL GIVES YOU WINGS YOU KNOW. |

I �ve heard of �the blues �, being down and depressed, but not �the walking blues. � |

Hello! I think that �walking blues � comes from a wonderful Paul Simon song. I don �t think that it �s really an expression. It seems to me to be a poetic use of language. |
