Grab your coat and get your hat, leave your worries at the doorstep
Just direct your feet to the sunny side of the street
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

If I never had a cent I'd be as 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 (Rockefeller/Harry Belafonte)
(Gold dust/With Barry Goldwater) at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
