Red Shoes

I can't afford these damn Red Shoes Shoes too Red to wear everyday they're too high, too strappy So loud they make me happy A Shoe causing to you look up stomping in like a dare makes every man look up makes every woman swear Lord, save me from these shoes the mess I hope they get me into See, I need a little trouble not whole lot, just a little They make feel like puttin my foot down and makin my man look up makin my man swear Swear he won't buy me these Red Shoes with heels that make my legs too long they're too high, too strappy However I just got paid, and he's wrong I need these damn Red Shoes these Shoes, they fit me and we talk They dance me straight into myself and fit well enough to let me just walk
