I can't wait till the summer comes along,
I'll open up my door and the snow will be gone.
People everywhere are sayin' hello,
Married couples mumble and yellin' at eachother,
Birds are singin' their song and I'm singin' mine
While I'm walkin'.
Pavement gets boilin' hot, I
Gotta give in, put on some shoes and
Wade through people yellin' the news in
Ties and Business Suits.
But I keep walkin' along and
Hummin' out my walkin' song I'm
Wearin' holes in the soles of my
Brand new boots.
Kickin' on a beer can, clickity clack.
Keepin' it bouncin' will keep it alive.
Think of all the bubbles somebody must have drank.
The bubbles turned to burps in somebody's insides
While I'm walkin'.
I like to take my time and look in all the windows.
Pretend that I got money to buy what's in the windows,
Lookin' at the ladies, all dressed up in the windows,
Watchin' the laundry comin' out of all the windows,
Watchin' the cops puttin' tickets on the windows
While I'm walkin.
I think I'll keep on hummin' 'cause the day was made for runnin',
I never learned the title of the song I always sing,
While I'm walkin'.
It's somethin' about hitchin' rides and
Dusty roads and country sides and
Sand that gets between your toes,
A real walkin' tune.
And shufflin' through the meadow grass,
And watchin' out for bees and glass,
And wadin' through an icy stream,
A song about you.
La la la la la la la

Da da da da da da da
