Shabby Ol Shoes

Shabby old Shoes Who would want to walk in my shoes? They are ragged shabby and worn I have walked life’s road in these shoes And their travels have left them torn. You have heard the expression many times About walking a mile in my shoes? Will I am here to let you know If you tried you would have them removed I need a new pair of shoes Some not so ragged and torn From walking the road of life They’ve been on since I was born I need a new road to follow One without so many rough spots That cause me so much heartache That I just have to stop. I would like to see some greener grass And some sunshine on a field of clover Instead of all the thunder clouds Pouring rain and doubts all over Who would like to walk in my shoes? There is not a single soul I have walked life’s road in these shoes And the road has made them old. But when I get a new pair of shoes That lead down a different road I will take off my shabby old shoes And walk with love on streets of gold. Connie Moore 10/31/13
