Lyrics Robert Palmer

Robert Palmer

Sailing Shoes

There's a lady in a turban

In a cocaine tree

And she does a dance so rhythmically

She's a crying and a singing

Havin' a time

But don't that cocaine tree look fine

But you gotta put on your sailin' shoes

Put on your sailin' shoes

Everyone will start to cheer

When you put on your sailin' shoes

Doctor, doctor, I feel so bad

This is the worst day I ever had

Have you this misery a very long time?

Well if you if, I'll lay it on the line

But you gotta put on your sailin' shoes

Put on your sailin' shoes

Everyone will hip hooray

When you put on your sailin' shoes

Jedidah

He's got a dime

says he catches more fish every time

Well I've gotta line

If you've got a pole

Well I'll meet you at the fishing hole

But you gotta put on your sailin' shoes

Put on your sailin' shoes

Everyone will start to cheer

When you put on your sailin' shoes

Said, everyone put on

Put on your sailin' shoes
