From the recording New Orleans High Society
Lyrics
Grab your coat, and get your hat
Leave your worries on that doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
And you can hear that pitter pat
That’s just the happy tune in your step
And life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street
[Bridge]
I used to walk in the shade
With my blues baby on parade
Now I’m no longer afraid, no, no
This rover, I crossed over
Now, if I never, never, never make a cent
I’ll be as rich, rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street
Somebody talk to me
Solos
[Bridge]
I used to walk in the shade
With my blues on parade
Now I’m no longer afraid
Because this rover, crossed over
And if I never, never, never have a cent
I’ll be as rich, rich as some other fella
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side
On the sunny side
On the sunny side
On the sunny side
With gold dust at my feet
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side
On the sunny side
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side
On the sunny side
On the sunny side
Gold dust at my feet
Ooh ooh
Gold dust at my feet
On the Sunny Side
