| Oh you can take the high road
|
| Or you can take the low road
|
| Go the way the wind is blowin'
|
| Take the main road, the side road
|
| The cross road, the rail road
|
| As long as you keep goin'
|
| Now if you ever get mad
|
| With a very young lad
|
| You better do what I tell you
|
| Don’t you rave, don’t you shout
|
| Don’t you even start to pout
|
| Here is a very simple sample
|
| Now I took a stroll with a boy in the park
|
| We found a bench in a spot that was dark
|
| And he tried stealin' a kiss, but what did I say?
|
| Oh, what did I say? |
| Hit the road!
|
| Down on the square where the hobos all meet
|
| Someone was makin' a speech in the street
|
| But just then somebody hollered, «Hey! |
| The Light’s green»
|
| Oh, what did he mean? |
| Hit the road!
|
| When you’re annoyed with anyone
|
| Don’t get mad, don’t rave, don’t shout
|
| Just count to ten and then politely say
|
| «Get lost, bail out»
|
| I just set out to you folks for a spell
|
| Not just to prove that I can take it as well
|
| I’ll let you give it to me, I’ll leave it to you
|
| Oh what’ll I do? |
| Hit the road!
|
| Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
|
| Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-do, da-da-da-da-do
|
| Da-da-da-da-da, hit the road!
|
| Dibs he gets fresh in the dark (Hit the road)
|
| And if he suggests that you park
|
| And if he trys to steal a kiss (Oh, what’ll you say?)
|
| Hit the road!
|
| (Hit the road) And if he should hand you a line
|
| (And if he says) «Honey, what is yours should be mine»
|
| If you have a date at eight and he comes at nine
|
| (Oh, what d’you say?) Hit the road!
|
| When you’re annoyed with anyone
|
| Don’t get mad, don’t rave, don’t shout
|
| You better count to ten and then politely say
|
| «Hey, get off my back»
|
| We just set out to you folks for a spell
|
| Not just to prove that we can take it as well
|
| We’ll let you give it to us, so what’ll we do
|
| Oh, what’ll we do? |
| Hit the road!
|
| Alright, we’ll hit the road! |
