·        C, F, C, G

 

              C                        F

Hit the bricks – Get your kicks

                     C                            G

Go have some fun while you’re still young

                 C                              F

There’ll be plenty of time in the future

              C                                                  G

To get a job as another high paid executive computer

So hit the bricks – Get your kicks

                     C                            G

Go have some fun while you’re still young

      C                         F

And wander all over creation

           C                                       G

Hit the bricks – Do it today without hesitation

 

          C

And I like to sit and think about the way I like to sit and think

  F

About the things I like to sit and think about

C                   G                             C

Don’t stop me now 'cuz I think I’m thinkin'

 

C                                                                F

Some people think that we can’t think on our own

F                                              C

So they gotta think for us in our home

C                                             G

On the TV set and the telephone

                        C                             F

And they tell us lies like socialize and nationalize and specialize

       C                                   G

And racialize and idolize and commercialize

 

   C                                                                             F

I like to think that when you think of someone that that someone thinks of you

        C                          G                                                   C

So I wrote this song to let you know that I’m thinkin' of you too

 

          C

And I like to sit and think about the way I like to sit and think

  F

About the things I like to sit and think about

C                    G                            C

Don’t stop me now 'cuz I think I’m thinkin'

 

            C                        F

Hit the bricks - Get your kicks

                      C                            G

Go have some fun while you’re still young

C                       F

Wander all over creation

            C                  G                        C

Hit the bricks - Do it today without hesitation

 

                   C                        F

Just hit the bricks - Get your kicks

                     C                            G

Go have some fun while you’re still young

                 C                             F

There’ll be plenty of time in the future

              C                                                     G

To get a job as another high paid executive computer

 

                C                               F

So hit the bricks - Go have some fun

                              C                               G

You better get your kicks while you’re still young

                   C

Just hit the bricks
