Let's Take a Walk Around the Block

Let's Take a Walk Around the Block - Doris Day (多麗絲·戴)

Someday we'll go places

New lands and new faces

The day we quit punching the clock

The future looks pleasant,

But at present

Let's take a walk around the block.

You're just the companion

I want at Grand Canyon

For throwing old blades down the rock

The money we have`ll go for travel

Let's take a walk around the block.

Gangway, we'll begin

When our, ship comes in

I'll sit on your lap

All over the map

To London in May time

To Venice in play time

To Paris in time for a frock

To Boston in bean time

Darling, meantime

Let's take a walk around the block.

In Winter at Christmas,

We'll visit the isthmus

And see how they lock up a lock

And then in Caracas, on a jackass,

We'll take a ride around the block.

We'll keep to our promise,

To visit St. Thomas

And then at Jamaica we'll dock

The prospect is thrilling,

Still I am willing,

Just now to walk around the block.

Onward, to Cathay

Then to Mandalay

Perhaps Vladivostok

We'll send the folks cables,

Accumulate labels,

Buy souvenirs till we're in hock,

But since we are flat in old Manhattan

Let's take a walk around the block.
