Helsinki

Lyrics

[Now this next song we're gonna
This next song we're gonna do for you
Is about how I love to walk
Cause I walk everywhere
I like to walk out in the desert
In the west
I live out in the west part of the united states
And I made up this song
Now give an E please]

When I get off the train and start walking
Well that's when I feel the way I was born to in my soul
When I'm wandering all around
Just watching my shoes picking up and down
Well I just roam wherever I will
See I love the world, so why sit still?

And I don't want automotive help, no
I do fine walking by myself
And I want nothing tween me and the ground
I just want to wander and walk around

Now when I get out the car and start walking again
Now that's when I remember that I have the ground for my old friend
Now when I walk as I would do
Well I don't wish for a ride from you

And I want nothing tween me and the ground
I just want to wander and walk around
Yeah

Lyrics

When I get off the train and start walking oh
That's when I feel the way I was born to in my soul
Now when I'm walking all around
Just watching my shoes picking up and down
Now I just roam wherever I will
See I love the world

You see I'm fine walking by myself

I Just wanna wander and walk around

When I get out the car and start walking again
That's when I remember that I have the ground as my old friend
Now when I walk, as I would do
Now I don't wish for a ride from you
And I don't walk for exercise
In fact I don't even know if, the reason why

But I sure don't want automotive help
No I'm fine walking by myself
And I want nothing 'tween me and the ground
I just wanna wander and walk around
Walk around
I want nothing 'tween me and the ground
I just wanna wander and walk around

And I want nothing between me and the ground
I Just wanna wander and walk around
