The rhythm in walkin' It keeps me movin' along. The rhyme in my mind It keeps me singin' this song. I'm gonna keep searchin' for my mother-of-pearl. I'm gonna leave footprints, ooh oh ooh oh oh, all over the world. I remember my childhood When I would Just unwind with a run-- I'd shoot, barefoot, To the pond, wave my wand, And live in my own land of fun. I'd walk the woods with some homemade goods Like nunchucks that I cut When I didn't know that I could, But I did, and I'm glad, I had the moments I had when I was Leavin' little ninja footprints in the mud. The rhythm in walkin' Keeps me movin' along. The rhyme in my mind Keeps me singin' these songs. I'm gonna keep searchin' for my mother-of-pearl. I'm gonna leave footprints, oh, all over the world. Feet you've taken me this far Let's just see how far we can go. Take me, make me, go see the sea And sail some archipelago. I'll trade my shoes for some homesick blues That don't last, just evaporate Into similar hues As I walk the beach sand, To turn 'round where I stand to see All of my footprints washed away by the sea. The rhythm in walkin' Keeps me movin' along. The rhyme in my mind Keeps me singin' these songs. I'm gonna keep searchin' for my mother-of-pearl. I'm gonna leave footprints All over this big old, bad old world.
