Lyrics Brook Benton

Brook Benton

Shoes

(Shoes, you keep walking up to her door)

(Shoes, you wanna go back for more)

Shoes, now we've been here before

Every time I put you on my feet

You keep walking up to her door

You been turned out in the rain

She puts you out in the cold

You been treated so bad

I think you got a hole in your sole

Now watch yourself, shoes

You've worn out your welcome there

Don't you know when you're not wanted

She got herself a brand new pair

I thought you'd be tired

Thought you'd be worn

I know where you wanna go, shoes

Every time I put you on

Now listen to me

Shoes, we've been here before

Every time I put you on

You wanna walk back to her door

I got to find a way

To keep moving on

I can't think of yesterday

Cause yesterday has gone

Can't live on all these things

Locked up in my head

I know where you wanna be

Back there under that woman's bed

Now, shoes, don't you

Have a better place to go

Shoes, that woman done

Put a hole in your sole

Shoes (shoes)

(You keep walking up to her door)

And every time I put you

On my feet, you keep on

(You wanna go back for more)

Oh, Lord now, shoes (shoes)

(She's only gonna make you blue)

Shoes (shoes) shoes

I know I put the blame on you

Shoes (shoes)...
