Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk

And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you

Step very lightly on the earth below

Or before you know it everyone will know



Streets were paved with a thousand eyes

And try as you may you can't disguise

There's only two things that you can't hide from

That's you and the ground you're walking on



Chorus:



Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk

You better watch what you do, what you do

'Cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away

You better watch what you say, what you say



Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street

They can read what you say so you gotta stay away

From words that sting, words are not true

And the things you say make a fool of you



Little white lies make the sidewalk cry

And you can betray with the things you say

Words won't last when you say 'em too fast

And you've been mislead by the things you've said



(chorus)



Intermediate:



When you're living on the street

Life can be full of misery

Find a place to call your own

Make your heart into a home



You can do it, uh huh

(repeat 3 times)



You can do it



After every word there's a place that heard

Every time your shoe hits the avenue

And when you've gone they'll sing a song

Of the stories you told when you felt so bold



You better think twice when you cross the ice

Everything you do comes back to you

When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear

When your laughter's true they'll run with you



(chorus)

(intermediate)



You can do it, uh huh

(repeat 3 times)



You can do it

(repeat 3 times)



(chorus)



Sidewalk talk

(repeat 3 times)



Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk

Sidewalk talk

Sidewalk talk

Sidewalk talk

(repeat)



Watch out for sidewalk talk

Sidewalk talk

Sidewalk talk

Sidewalk talk



Let me tell ya 'bout

Let me tell ya 'bout

Let me tell ya 'bout

Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
