Lyrics by Floyd Kellogg
It all started on a Sunday
In the morning,
we woke up early
Began to play with some Pogo Stix
Started to sing with the hippie chicks
By afternoon we were rollin’
Down a path, we were strollin’
Made a dash to the liquor stop
Said “Fill me up again, Mr. Buttonshop.”
The afternoon was quiet now
Towards the woods we took our walk now
The beaten path beats me up again
It’s 19 miles so keep walkin’
C’mon kids pick your feet up
You know we need ya, you don’t believe us
In a day we’ll be home my friend
It’s 19 miles so keep walkin’
And the clock rolls slow across the crooked top (clock rolls slow)
It’s a heavenly roll to our favorite stop
Catch a ride, catch a vibe to the corner shop
Where the hippie girls dance
Yes indeed I feel it rainin’
I know it’s wet, so stop complainin’
The sky’ll open up in an hour or two
There’s nothing to do today anyway
Comin’ home from the weekend
Was the longest, I felt like sleepin’
This is all that I could think
As the wind began to howl and my ears ring.
And the clock rolls slow across the crooked top (clock rolls slow)
It’s a heavenly roll to our favorite stop
Catch a ride, catch a vibe to the corner shop
Where the hippie girls dance
And there’s one thing better
When it all comes together
We’ll be, trippin’, all the way home, way home, way, home
Catch the breeze, catch the water
From flyin’ right in my eyes
Here’s a taste, here’s another
Of what could be happenin’ here
With your faith, with your lover
Couldn’t get her outta my head
As I’ve seen, there’s no other.
And I’m wastin’ away
Just for, just for today
At a lightspeed
Come join me on my Pogo Stix this afternoon
Catch the breeze, catch the water
From flyin’ right in my eyes
Here’s a taste, here’s another
Of what could be happenin’ here
With your faith, with your lover
Couldn’t get her outta my head
As I’ve seen, there’s no other.
The hippie chicks on the Pogo Stix
Yeah they’re looking for a ride gonna get their fix
The hippie chicks on the Pogo Stix
Yeah they’re looking for a ride gonna get their kicks.
