Hootie, Watch Your Feet

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hootie takes the corner like she’s late for a parade Every curb on Maple Avenue gets personally betrayed She waves at the crossing guard, says, “I’ve got this, watch me go” Then the passenger-side tire gives the sidewalk quite a show [Pre-Chorus] She parks beneath the grocery sign, steps out with a little pride That yellow curb stop catches her; she takes a sudden ride [Chorus] Oh, Hootie, watch your feet, watch your feet You can’t keep losing every curb you meet One more turn, one more tumble, one more parking-lot surprise Hootie, get back up and laugh it off—there’s a sparkle in your eyes [Verse 2] She face-planted by the cart return, her sunglasses took a spin A bag of oranges rolled away; she waved the shoppers in “I meant to check the pavement,” she announced from down below Then popped up with a grin like she’d just finished up a show [Pre-Chorus] The cashier brought her napkins, and the whole lot cheered her on She brushed the dust from both her knees and carried groceries home [Chorus] Oh, Hootie, watch your feet, watch your feet You can’t keep losing every curb you meet One more turn, one more tumble, one more parking-lot surprise Hootie, get back up and laugh it off—there’s a sparkle in your eyes [Bridge] Now she takes the wide way slowly, checks the ground before she goes Keeps both hands upon the wheel and gives the curbs a little space But if one jumps out to meet her, she just laughs and takes a bow Hootie’s got the best recovery in the whole town now [Final Chorus] Oh, Hootie, watch your feet, watch your feet You can’t keep losing every curb you meet One more turn, one more tumble, still the parking-lot surprise Hootie, get back up and laugh it off—there’s a sparkle in your eyes [Outro] Watch your feet, Hootie Watch your feet
