These Old Shoes

Well, they said it was the cheapest fare at this time of year

And they said, "It's nice and safe, you got nothing to fear"

So I will take this old plane to get to you

Yes, I will take this old plane to get to you

Twenty minutes late the plane crashes down

And I'm one of three left amongst a priest and a clown

And then all I can hear is the hiss of the track

I said, "why the hell not" and I jump on the back

And I will take this old train to get to you

Yes, I will take this old train to get to you

She said, "get off my train you dirty hobo"

And I tried to explain but it was a no go

It was a no go for this hobo

He said for fifty bucks I could take it

He was sure that this lemon could make it

So I will take this old car to get to you

Yes, I will take this old car to get to you

(He said you could take it)

Couple miles out of this old part of town

My engine explodes with a horrible sound

But I will take these old shoes to get to you

Yes, I will take these old shoes to get to you

Oh, I will take these old shoes to get to you

Yes, I will take these old shoes to get to you
