Walk or Ride
The Ditty Bops
Transcribed by Christine James (SetItAlight@aol.com) and Matthew Hardaway
[Am] With just one kiss [D] you could change the world
It [G] might not be much [C] better but it certainly couldn�t [Am] hurt
When you stomp your feet you [D] aren�t hurting me
But you�re [G] always killing [C] something just by living on the [Am] earth
[Am] So who you supposed to listen [D] to
When you�re [Gm] looking for something to [C] do
And [F] all the voices shut you [B] up
�Cause [E] someone put a brick in your [C] coffee [Am] cup
When you�re trying to de[D]cide whether to [Gm]walk or to [C] ride
Take the [F] easy way; you [B] know that you want [E] to
I saw an educated girl give her hair a twirl
And contemplate the meaning of a man with just one arm
She�s not a genius or a dunce but it makes no difference
For at any moment we might find ourselves a charm
But I�m feeling quite confused by the people who refuse to see
A simple way of life don�t make you the loser
They say we won�t make it far if we don�t drive there in a car
But we�ll be there with time to spare and find our own way home
You might find the meaning of life in the barrel of a rifle
If it�s pointed at a bird or if it�s pointed at your head
But me, I�d rather plant a tree that grows up tall for all to see
Until I need a pencil -- then I�ll chop it to the ground
At night falling down will it make a sound
Should I even wonder what it�d say
It�s so hard to change yourself; easier to tell someone else
That everything is gonna be okay
Ooooh�
