On The Sunny Side Of The Street

On The Sunny Side Of The Street - Lionel Hampton Orchestra

Grab your coat and get your hat

Leave your worries on the doorstep

Life can be so sweet

On the sunny side of the street

Can't you hear the pitter-pat

And that happy tune is your step

Life can be complete

On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade

But I'm not afraid because this rover crossed over

And if I never had a cent

I'd be rich as Rockefeller

With gold dust at my feet

On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade

But I'm not afraid because this rover crossed over

And if I never had a cent

I'd be rich as Harry Belafonte

With Barry Goldwater at my feet

On the sunny side of the street
