Title Song of the 1966
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
Verse
YOU CAN TELL 'BOUT THE MANNER OF A MAN,
BY THE SHAPE OF HIS HEAD, IT HAS BEEN SAID,
YOU CAN TELL IF HIS CHARACTER IS FINE
BY A LINE IN HIS HAND, I UNDERSTAND,
BUT MY OWN METHOD FOR JUDGING PEOPLE I MEET...
IS BY THE WAY THEY USE THE SHOES ON THEIR FEET!
Chorus
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN THE WORLD'S UNDONE YOU,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN YOU'RE WALKING PROUD,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN THE NEIGHBORS SHUN YOU,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
SETS YOU 'BOVE THE CROWD,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN SOMEBODY LOVES YOU,
THAT'S VERY MUCH LIKE
WALKING ON A CLOUD,
GOOD FORTUNE FOUND YOU, CHAPPIE,
AND YOUR LIFE'S A HAPPY VALENTINE,
WHEN YOU'RE WALKING HAPPY,
DON'T THE BLOOMIN' WORLD SEEM FINE?
Second Chorus
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE CROWING,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN YOUR PRIDE IS SHOWING,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN TODAY'S YOUR DAY,
THERE'S THE KIND OF WALK YOU WALK
WHEN THE WORLD'S ALL RAINBOWS,
AND YOUR HEART'S HOPPIN'
LIKE A POPPIN' JAY,
SO YOU HAD BEST BELIEVE IT, CHAPPIE,
YOU'LL FIND THAT LIFE IS FINGER SNAPPY,
THE DAY YOU LEARN THAT WALKING HAPPY...
GIVES THE WORLD A SHINE,
Tag
SO, JUST KEEP WALKING HAPPY
WITH YOUR HAND IN MINE.
