[Intro]
Dm
Sometimes I go walking
Gm
Walking down the street
A
When an old aged pensioner
Dm
I do meet
Dm
That’s when I do practise
Gm
My favourite sport
[Chorus]
A
I kick a stick, kick a stick
Dm
That they do support
Gm A Dm
Kick a stick, kick a stick
[Verse]
Dm
Well, you can kick a stick
Gm
Anywhere you go
A
Kick that stick, kick that stick
Dm
And down they go
Well you can kick a stick
Gm
As they go on their way
A
Then you can go
Dm
Hip hip hip hooray
[Bridge]
Gm A Dm
Kick a stick, kick a stick
[Verse]
Dm
Well you can kick artificial limbs
Gm
Zimmer frames as well
A
But kicking sticks well that’s the best way
Dm
Old aged pensioners to fell
And when they’re lying
Gm
Down there on the floor
A
You can kick ‘em kick ‘em kick ‘em
Dm
More and more
[Outro]
