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
