Walking Song

Intro: verse 1 Wouldn’t it be nice to walk together Baring our souls while wearing out the leather We could talk shop, harmonize a song Wouldn’t it be nice to walk along verse 2 I’ll show you houses of architectural renown Some are still standing, some have fallen down Farm houses buried under Canada’s snow Spanish villas on the Boulevards of Mexico verse 3 And I’ll learn to tell the ash from the oak And if you don’t know, I won’t make no joke We’ll climb to the top to view the world from above Or carve our initials in the trunk, like teenagers in love verse 4 And when we get hungry, we’ll stop to eat Gotta think of our stomachs and rest our feet And if we get thirsty, we’ll have a drink or two In a mountain top bar with a mountain top view Instrumental Verse 5 And when we get tired, we’ll stop to rest And if you still want to talk, you can bare your breast If it’s Winter and cold, we’ll take a rooming-house room If it’s Summer and warm, we’ll sleep under the moon Verse 6 And we’ll talk about the sports we played ‘Bout the time you got busted, or the times I got laid We’ll talk blood and how we were bred Talk about the folks, both living and dead Verse 7 This song, like this walk, I find hard to end Be my lover or be my friend In sneakers or boots or regulation shoes Walking beside you, I’ll never get the walking blues
