Grab your coat and get your hat,
leave your worry at the doorstep
Just direct your feet to the
sunny side of the street
Can't you hear that pitter pat
and that happy tune is your step
Life can be so sweet on the
sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade with
those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid 'cause this
rover, crossed over
If I never had a cent I'll be as
rich as Rockfeller
Gold dust at my feet on the
sunny side of the street
With those blues on parade
Because this rover, it crossed
over
If I never had a cent I'll be as
loaded as old Rockfeller
With that gold dust 'round my
feet
On the sunny side of the street
On the side, at that side of the
street that is sunny
