Paper Hats Lyrics

[Verse 1]

These roads are made for walking

Though the blistered feet are talking

Round the barrel, grab a seat

Oh, the stories that we'll meet

So the man begins his tale

Our expressions growing pale

And the crickets with their song

Begging us to join along



[Chorus]

When the miles begin their walking

And the trees begin their talking

Swing on round the merry-go-round

Married girls in snowy sound

Birds are singing "Hallelujah!"

But those tunes are bound to fool ya'

Everything as it should be; Oh, Infinite Mystery!



[Verse 2]

More than fiction meets the eye

For it tells a seeing story

Who really wants the glory?

We will burn them in a fury!

Paper guns and paper hats

When they burn, they all burn black

And we remember all we are:

Broken boxes, burned and charred



[Chorus]

When the miles begin their walking

And the trees begin their talking

Swing on round the merry-go-round

Married girls in snowy sound

Birds are singing "Hallelujah!"

But those tunes are bound to fool ya'

Everything as it should be; Oh, Infinite Mystery!

When the miles begin their walking

And the trees begin their talking

Swing on round the merry-go-round

Married girls in snowy sound

Birds are singing "Hallelujah!"

But those tunes are bound to fool ya'

Everything as it should be; Oh, Infinite Mystery!
