Red Hot Chili Peppers - Walkabout Lyrics






I think I'll go on a walkabout
And find out what it's all about
Just me and my own two feet
In the heat I've got myself to meet
A detective of perspective I
Need to try to get a bigger eye
I could learn the art of life
On a walk I could find a wife
On a walkabout

You could do it in the city
You could do it in a zone
You could do it in a dessert
You could do the unknown
On a walkabout

High dessert skies are what I spy
So flyÿyou've got to wonder why
The stingrays must be fat this year
Moving slow in my lowest gear
The digirido original man with a dream
I believe the Aborigine
On a walkabout

You could do it with a shuffle
You could do it with a stroll
You could do it with a stride
You could do it all alone
On a walkabout

I've been sitting far too long
At homeÿI've got to get along
A walk could cure most all my blues
bare feet or in my two shoe
Bloodwood flowers in my gaze
Walkabout in a sunny daze
On a walkabout

I think I'll go on a walkabout
Find out what it's all about
Just me and my own two feet
In the heat I've got myself to meet
Use your legs to rock it wide
Take a ride to the other side

  1. S.... ....

    Totally underrated album. Dave should have stayed on for more albums. Frusciante was bollocks when he returned in the 00's.

  2. a.... c....

    Tremenda intro de chad

  3. L.... W....

    I think I'll go on a walkabout
    And find out what it's all about
    And that ain't hard
    Just me and my own two feet
    In the heat I've got myself to meet
    A detective of perspective
    I need to try and get a bigger eye, open wide
    Blood wood flowers in my gaze
    Walkabout in a sunny daze
    To me now
    On a walkabout
    You could do it in the city
    You could do it in a zone
    You could do it in the desert
    You could do the unknown
    On a walkabout
    High desert skies, are what I spy
    So fly, you've got to wonder why
    The stingrays must be fat this year
    Moving slow in my lowest gear
    The digeridoo original, man with a dream
    I believe the Aborigine
    On a walkabout
    You could do it with a shuffle
    You could do it with a stroll
    You could do it with a stride
    You could do the unknown
    On a walkabout
    A walk could cure almost all my blues
    Bare feet or in my two shoes
    One, two
    I think I'll go on a walkabout
    Find out what it's all about, can't hurt to try
    Use your legs to rock it wide
    Take a ride to the other side

  4. D.... D....

    This album is so much better than any album released after Californication.

  5. E.... B....

    Does anyone else hear the home movies intro in that breakdown I feel like brendon smalls took some inspiration

  6. w.... ....

    Soulful Wawah chatting with a crazy cuica. Groovy bass walking with Antony on the wild side. Chad and his magic ghost notes... That was definitely something !

  7. G.... Z....

    Ahhhh... Love it!!!!! Super smooth!!!

  8. t.... d....

    Click on me to see the band sexually assault a woman on television

  9. o.... l....

    Chad's drums sound so fucking great here

  10. y.... ....

    Chill Song with a funky condiment

  11. j.... w....

    i totally agreed John F is only fit to RHCP but i can't fooled my self that i love one hot minute album thanx to Dave Navarro

  12. M.... A....

    Frank Zappa - Montana

  13. M.... W....

    This album is so underrated.

  14. B.... P....

    Saw Em do this 96’ roskilde denmark Antoni had busted ribs but still rocked an awesome show oh yea
    Flea rules🤙

  15. w.... f....

    the walking song...love it

  16. S.... 3....

    Dave is genius for his craft, but his craft wasn't fit 100% for the rhcp style.. the fans are looking for the genuine rhcp style! but for me this album is perfectly awesome..

  17. d.... ....

    3:05 That guitar solo though...

  18. J.... G....

    Also, the transition at the end of the song, into Tearjerker...fucking A. I'm sure we all noticed it...but did we recognize the brilliance? This album is literally one of the best ever.

    J.... G....

    agree 100%!

  19. J.... G....

    Great track. One of their best. And the fadeout at 4:12, are you kidding me? Navarro was an excellent crutch when the Chili's needed it the most.

  20. F.... L....

    I want RHCP to play this live(my fav song)

  21. E.... ....

    So magically relaxing line by Navarro and very melodic pumping line by Flea make this song is fucking amazing

  22. T.... M....

    one of the best RHCP songs. dave killed it

  23. J.... M....

    The opening notes sound so much like Love Me Two Times by The Doors

  24. R.... ....

    this song appeals to most parties

  25. S.... Y....

    3:33 - "Can't hurt to try" or "Canada Dry"? (Just a thought.)

  26. M.... F....

    aunque e muchos no les guste este es uno de los mejores discos que han hecho, Dave Navarro un groso

  27. N.... F....

    Ese bajo me hace acordar a Gol de Mujer de Divididos, que genial que suena!

  28. C.... J....

    jestem debilem

  29. L.... L....

    damn rhcp actually used to be cool

  30. W.... W....

    1995 i was doing my military service in italy, and this album kept me company throughout all that period, for this i love it, and musically is one of their best album!

  31. A.... y....

    I bought this CD back in 1996. It was the Australian version with a bonus disc that contained an interview on Triple J with Flea

  32. C.... A....

    Dave is amazing ... john mmmmm is so so

  33. F.... P....

    Love the relaxed vibe

  34. j.... 1....

    *That bassline tho*

  35. B.... 1....

    Such a cool song 😎

  36. C.... ....

    So sweet ^_^

  37. Z.... ....

    This album is beter then their last 3. Move over Josh.

  38. A.... H....

    1:41 literally sounds like pulling a straw in and out of a drink

  39. L.... B....

    Reminds me of Whole Lotta Love 0:00

  40. M.... V....

    I like Flea sometimes that he is not all slap bass. Les needs to learn that imo.

  41. M.... V....

    Top 10 bass line

  42. M.... N....

    du bon progressif!

  43. G.... L....

    Why does this sound so generic

    G.... L....

    🚪...
    Use it

    G.... L....

    What do you think it sounds like? Pretty unique to me.

  44. F.... V....

    Aguanten los peppers vieja no me importa nada vida eterna a estos viejos

  45. M.... ....

    loove this song

  46. T.... ....

    This one is the best song ever made, fight me.

    T.... ....

    Dude, I'm with you bro! How underrated is this album?

    T.... ....

    Couldnt agree more !

    T.... ....

    i found god in a tomato - psychedelic porn crumpets or any psychedelic porn crumpets or king gizzard song

  47. p.... f....

    samba + funk + red hot = perfection

  48. s.... 4....

    In the absence of John,, ill take Dave.

  49. K.... F....

    1:23 読めない

    K.... F....

    Roger that

  50. J.... N....

    Anyone know the name of the effect of the guitar in the solo ??

  51. d.... c....

    If you set the balance all the way to the left it will play the song without the guitar so you can just jam Flea's bass.

  52. C.... M....

    Masterpiece

  53. G.... R....

    This got some sick funkadelic vibes!

  54. K.... ....

    I love Fru with all my heart, but it doesn't mean I don't love Navarro too. This is my second best RHCP album, right after BSSM. And it's weird RHCP don't play songs from this album on stage.

  55. M.... S....

    I still think this is GOLD bass & guitar solo PERFECT

  74. H.... ....

    ok but whats up with the straw

  75. S.... ....

    My favourite track from what I consider RHCP's best album (I know, I'm way in the minority on that). Dave Navarro's sinuous solo at 3:05 is spellbinding.

    S.... ....

    Best album ever that they did

    S.... ....

    @SollyDora Bloodsugar and Freakey Styley are Far Better

    S.... ....

    @Robert Funke no stfu

  79. F.... I....

    This Bassline

  80. T.... ....

    Mighty Joe Young - Dirty Dog
