Lidi (Studio, August 4, 1973) Lyrics

[Intro]
Li-di, li-dee-di-di, li-di, li-dee-di
Li-di, li-dee-di-di

[Verse 1]
Riding in a car or flying in a plane
It don't really matter, it's all just the same
Just as long as the ground keeps moving under me
This guitar will surely be free

[Refrain]
Li-di, li-dee-di-di, li-di, li-dee-di
Li-di, li-dee-di-di

[Verse 2]
From the mountains down to the sea
Across the ocean just to see
Just what you're thinking of
To sing a song and talk about love
To sing a song and talk about love

[Bridge]
You know I traveled miles to come here
You know I hope to have some fun here

[Verse 3]
Doesn't matter what country you're from
Just as long as you wanna have fun
I'll play my guitar and sing you a song
Kiss the girl and then I'm gone
Kiss the girl and then I'm gone
[Bridge]
You know I traveled miles to comе here
You know I hope to havе some fun here

[Verse 4]
From the mountains down to the sea
Across the ocean just to see
Just what you're thinking of
To share a joke and talk about love
To share a joke and talk about love

[Refrain]
Li-di, li-dee-di-di, li-di, li-dee-di
Li-di, li-dee-di-di

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
