Strollin'

DIAMONDS AND PEARLS

Print without graphics

Close the shop, let's take a drive
Take a break from nine 2 five
It's so great 2 be alive, oh yeah
We could rent some roller skates
We could skate around the lake
If we don't know how, we'll fake it, oh yeah

CHORUS:
Strollin', strollin'
We could have fun just strollin'
Rockin', rollin', oh yeah

Let's forget about the time (Time)
Let's relax and ease our mind (Mind)
We deserve 2 just feel fine, oh yeah
We could stroll the mezzanine (Strollin', strollin')
Buy some dirty magazines (Yeah)
Laugh behind them while we're eatin' ice cream (Ha ha ha..)

[Chorus]

See the man with the blue guitar
Maybe one day he'll be a star
Give him your ice cream and I'll give him the keys 2 my car
There's so much hate going 'round
Hard 2 not let it get U down
Least we could do is make a joyful sound, oh yeah

[Chorus]

Strollin, strollin'
Oh, rockin', rollin', oh yeah
(We could have fun) {x2} (Just strollin')

{CHORUS - repeated 2 the end}
Close the shop, let's take a ride
Take a break from nine 2 five
So great, so great 2 be alive, oh yeah
Strollin' we... oh, rockin', rollin', oh yeah
Oh strollin'
We, we, yeah...
Oh oh strollin', strollin'
Oh yeah
