lyrics

I know what I’m going to do today
I’m gonna learn how to roller skate

Wheels on my feet, how hard could it be
Wheels on my feet, oh I’ll be free

I found these skates at a yard sale last year
So it’s about time that I faced my fears

Wheels on my feet, dreams in my head
Of long rides down the esplanade

I’ll wobble at first, & it feels like I’ll fall
But if it was easy why do it all?

Wheels on my feet, and sweat on my brow
Wheels on my feet, I’ll figure out how

And If I stumble, well I’ll be okay
But I’ll admit I’m still a little afraid

Wheels on my feet, might look silly at first
Wheels on my feet, but it could be worse

And then! There’s a hill! I go down! I can’t stop!
Arms out wide! Crouch and tilt! And watch out! For that rock!

But it’s worth it to learn how to roller skate
One day I’ll blast fast past the people and wave

Wheels on my feet, I’m pretty brave
Wheels on my feet, I deserve praise

‘Cause I know what I’m going to do today
I’m gonna learn how to roller skate

Wheels on my feet, how hard could it be
If there’s wheels on your feet, you can come follow me...
