On my way home from school
I found her in a showcase
Summer evening, the wind was cool
Caught me her very grace
On my way home from school
I found her in a showcase
Summer evening, the wind was cool
Caught me her very grace
I made up my mind swore by my teacup
Not to eat until my mother gives up
For my red shoes
So i won my red shoes and
Walked around everywhere
Christmas time i held the firebrand
Blue hat in mayfair
Big kangaroo in the zoo stopped saying coo
Hate all blues i love snooze yes i won't lose
In my red shoes
But as is often the case
Chewing gum and all
Rainy day, muddy seashore
Sorry i was bold
Other shoes lookin' so good
Oh! this fickle boy
One day she went away
From my shoecase
Years have passed now i'm at ease
On a limousine seat
Wearing a dark brown suit
And sunglasses so neat
But once in a while drinking a glass of Pernod
I remember when i ran down on the snow
In my red shoes
