( C  Am  F  G ) 
The rhythm in walkin'
It keeps me movin' along
The rhyme in my mind
It keeps me singin' this song

I'm gonna keep searchin' for my mother-of-pearl
I'm gonna leave footprints, ooh oh ooh oh oh, all over the world

I remember my childhood
When I would
Just unwind with a run--

I'd shoot, barefoot
To the pond, wave my wand
And live in my own land of fun

I'd walk the woods with some homemade goods
Like nunchucks that I cut
When I didn't know that I could
But I did, and I'm glad
I had the moments I had when I was
Leavin' little ninja footprints in the mud

The rhythm in walkin'
Keeps me movin' along
The rhyme in my mind
Keeps me singin' these songs

I'm gonna keep searchin' for my mother-of-pearl
I'm gonna leave footprints, oh, all over the world

Feet you've taken me this far
Let's just see how far we can go
Take me, make me, go see the sea
And sail some archipelago

I'll trade my shoes for some homesick blues
That don't last, just evaporate
Into similar hues
As I walk the beach sand
To turn 'round where I stand to see
All of my footprints washed away by the sea

The rhythm in walkin'
Keeps me movin' along
The rhyme in my mind
Keeps me singin' these songs

I'm gonna keep searchin' for my mother-of-pearl
I'm gonna leave footprints
All over this big old, bad old world
