In These Shoes?

I once met a man with a sense of adventure

He was dressed to thrill wherever he went

He said “Let's make love on a mountain top

Under the stars on a big hard rock”

I said “In these shoes?

I don't think so”

I said “Honey, let's do it here.

“So I'm sitting at a bar in Guadalajara

In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes

He said “I've got as powerful horse outside

Climb on the back, I'll take you for a ride

I know a little place, we can get there for the break of day.”

I said “In these shoes?

No way, Jose”

I said “Honey, let's stay right here.”

No le gusta caminar. No puede montar a caballo

(She doesn't like to walk, she can't ride a horse)

Como se puede bailar? Es un escandolo

(But the way she dances, it's a scandal)

Then I met an Englishman

“Oh” he said

“Won't you walk up and down my spine,

It makes me feel strangely alive.”

I said “In these shoes?

I doubt you'd survive.”

I said “Honey, let's do it.

Let's stay right here.”

No le gusta caminar. No puede montar a caballo

(She doesn't like to walk, she can't ride a horse)

Como se puede bailar? Es un escandolo

(But the way she dances, it's a scandal)
