Hit The Road - Original - The Andrews Sisters

Oh you can take the high road

Or you can take the low road

Go the way the wind is blowin'

Take the main road, the side road

The cross road, the rail road

As long as you keep goin'

Now if you ever get mad

With a very young lad

You better do what I tell you

Don’t you rave, don’t you shout

Don’t you even start to pout

Here is a very simple sample

Now I took a stroll with a boy in the park

We found a bench in a spot that was dark

And he tried stealin' a kiss, but what did I say?

Oh, what did I say?

Hit the road!

Down on the square where the hobos all meet

Someone was makin' a speech in the street

But just then somebody hollered, «Hey!

The Light’s green»

Oh, what did he mean?

Hit the road!

When you’re annoyed with anyone

Don’t get mad, don’t rave, don’t shout

Just count to ten and then politely say

«Get lost, bail out»

I just set out to you folks for a spell

Not just to prove that I can take it as well

I’ll let you give it to me, I’ll leave it to you

Oh what’ll I do?

Hit the road!

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-do, da-da-da-da-do

Da-da-da-da-da, hit the road!

Dibs he gets fresh in the dark (Hit the road)

And if he suggests that you park

And if he trys to steal a kiss (Oh, what’ll you say?)

Hit the road!

(Hit the road) And if he should hand you a line

(And if he says) «Honey, what is yours should be mine»

If you have a date at eight and he comes at nine

(Oh, what d’you say?) Hit the road!

When you’re annoyed with anyone

Don’t get mad, don’t rave, don’t shout

You better count to ten and then politely say

«Hey, get off my back»

We just set out to you folks for a spell

Not just to prove that we can take it as well

We’ll let you give it to us, so what’ll we do

Oh, what’ll we do?

Hit the road!

Alright, we’ll hit the road!
