Mike Boyd - I Get Around lyrics

rate me

I am Canadian, not an American

But I treat hip hop as part of my heritage

I went down South, yeah, I went to Texas

Electric chairs for anyone with a death wish

I been down under where they all say, “yay, mate”

I even seen a dingo eat a lady’s baby

Living this tall life will make you crazy

Got me drinking every night

Not thinking about the wife

Took a flight to the UK, I hated the food taste

I lost my appetite, they lost my suitcase

And I ain’t built the spring on another tuba toothpaste

I ain’t got pounds to burn but I could lose weight

I went to Europe on an eurotrip

If you thinking about going, I encourage it

‘Cause on March 30th I got my birthday wish

Up in Amsterdam smoking birthday gifts

I get around

I get around

‘Cause I get around

‘Cause I get around

Yeah, I been all around the world

But I still got a lot of place I gotta see

I wanna go to Spain, I wanna roam with the bulls

I wanna go to the Congo, go hunt for gold

Maybe go to the Arctic and swim with the penguins

Then ride on a double decker bus in England

Yes, I’m working and I ignore the promises

And I ain’t stopping till I see every continent

Yeah, I’m checking off my bucket list one trip at a time

Still gotta go to Africa and live with a tribe

I fantasize over the ways of the Samurai

Fly to Japan, get a sword, learn to handle mine

Take Kung Fu in China, learn to drop you

Eating my food with them little wood chopsticks

Then to Costa Rica, spend time in the Tropics

In the tropic forest fighting snakes that are toxic

Traveling the world, going town to town

Every other week I’m homeward bound ‘cause

I get around

I get around

‘Cause I get around

‘Cause I get around

‘Cause I get around

‘Cause I get around
