Woke up cold one tuesday,
|
I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick,
|
I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life,
|
So I quickly opened the wardrobe,
|
Pulled out some jeans and a T-Shirt that seemed clean,
|
Topped it off with a pair of old shoes,
|
That were ripped around the seams,
|
And I thought these shoes just don't suit me.
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Hey, I put some new shoes on,
|
And suddenly everything's right,
|
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling,
|
An it's so inviting,
|
Oh, short on money,
|
But long on time,
|
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
|
And I'm running late,
|
And I dont need an excuse,
|
'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes.
|
|
Woke up late one thursday,
|
And I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes,
|
And I felt like there were two days missing,
|
As I focused on the time,
|
And I made my way to the kitchen,
|
But I had to stop from the shock of what I found,
|
A room full of all my friends all dancing round and round,
|
And I thought hello new shoes,
|
Byebye them blues!
|
|
Hey, I put some new shoes on,
|
And suddenly everything's right,
|
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling,
|
And it's so inviting,
|
Oh, short on money,
|
But long on time,
|
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
|
And I'm running late,
|
And I dont need an excuse,
|
So I'm wearing my brand new shoes.
|
|
2X
|
Take me wondering through these streets,
|
Where bright lights and angels meet,
|
Stone to stone they take me on,
|
I'm walking 'til the break of dawn.
|
|
|
Hey, I put some new shoes on,
|
And suddenly everything's right,
|
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling,
|
And it's so inviting,
|
Oh, short on money,
|
But long on time,
|
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
|
And I'm running late,
|
And I dont need an excuse,
|
So I'm wearing my brand new shoes.
|
|
Oh, Hey, I put some new shoes on,
|
And suddenly everything's right,
|
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling,
|
And it's so inviting,
|
Oh, short on money,
|
But long on time,
|
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
|
And I'm running late,
|
And I dont need an excuse,
|
So I'm wearing my brand new shoes.
