Walk on their side of the street
Don't walk where it feels the best
Walk away from people you meet
Don't talk to strangers, unless
They walk the way you want them to

Don't walk unless the others do
I said walk, like you could use a ride
Don't walk with a confident stride
Then people will walk over you
Don't talk until they tell you to
Don't talk if it's against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That's what they want ya to do
Yeah, that's what they want you to do

Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la

Don't talk if it's against the rules
Just walk away and be a fool
That's what they want ya to do
So you got to walk like you want to make it
Don't walk like you just can't take it
Go on and walk on any side you like
Don't walk wherever they tell you to, psyche
The sun will shine upon you one day
If you're always walkin' your way

The sun will shine upon you one day
If you're always walkin' your way

Hey, sha la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
(Tellin' me now, just walkin')
Said I'm walkin' on your side of the street (tellin' me now, just walkin')
I'm talkin' to the people I meet (tellin' me now, just walkin')
Alright
Ha, hey

Walk, don't walk
Talk, don't talk

Walk, don't walk
Talk, don't talk

Walk, don't walk
Talk, don't talk
