INTRO
VERSE 1
(N.C.) Without my walking stick, I'd go insane
I can't look my best I feel undressed without my cane.
Must have my walking stick, 'cause it may rain
When it pours can't be outdoors without my cane.
CHORUS 1
If I ever left my house, without my walking stick,
Well it would be something, I could never explain;
Oh the thing that makes me click, on lovers lane,
Would go for naught if I were caught without my cane.

CHORUS 2 (As chorus 1)
If I ever left my house, without my walking stick,
Well it would be something, I could never explain;
Oh the thing that makes me click, on lovers lane,
