Quality Shoe |
You got your toecaps reinforced with steel |
Hard-wearing sole and heel |
Make those tired feet feel like new |
Take your pick, black or brown |
Great for the country or the man in town |
You’re gonna need a quality shoe |
You don’t want no stand-by pair |
'cos these’ll take the wear and tear |
Made to take good care of you |
For that trip by road or rail |
For extra grip on those rocky trails |
You’re gonna need a quality shoe |
Now they maybe ain’t too hot for dancing |
But i don’t foresee too much of that |
You ain’t exactly gonna be prancing |
Around in the moonlight |
With a cane and a top hat |
If you could use a change of pace |
And be excused from the rat race |
Just take a look at what’s on view |
Lace 'em up, walk around |
I guarantee you can’t wear 'em down |
You’re gonna need a quality shoe |
Now i wish you sunny skies |
And happiness wherever you may go |
But you got to realise |
There’ll be wind, there’ll be rain |
And occasional snow |
You’re gonna want to smile in them |
If you’re gonna walk a mile in them |
There’ll be times when you’ll be blue |
To laugh at rainy days and then |
Make your getaways in them |
You’re gonna need a quality shoe |
You got your toecaps reinforced with steel |
Hard-wearing sole and heel |
Make those tired feet feel like new |
Take your pick, black or brown |
Great for the country or the man in town |
You’re gonna need a quality shoe |
