Lyrics Smokey Robinson

Smokey Robinson

Shoe Soul

I might as well be boots or brogans or some sneakers

You've walked on me for a country mile

You take the part of me that's weak

And try to make it weaker

You've got your souls confused

In case you haven't heard the news

Shoe soul was made for walking on

My soul was made for somebody to comfort

Same sound but different as up and down

Tread softly now

Don't stampede

Сause my soul is the soul you really need

I've been your bridge over troubled waters

In your time of crisis

Your jacket laid across a puddle of mud

And when you're down and out and in need, I've been the nicest

Red carpet, welcome mat

But oh my soul's worn out from that

Shoe soul was made for walking on

My soul was made for somebody to comfort

Same sound but for you I lay me down

Tread softly now

Don't stampede

Cause my soul is the soul you really need

To walk beside

Don't mean to be a sidewalk

Shoe soul was made for walking on

Shoe soul is made of rubber, crepe and leather

My soul was made for holding on

Help me hold our souls together

Shoe soul was made for walking on

Shoe soul was made of rubber, crepe and leather

My soul, my soul was made for holding on
