SHOES by Joe Jaunty (original) © 2012

Intro: I got shoes that that choose to follow me around.
Instead of takin´a step and dare to try - that path on the wide horizon. I think my laces are kinda´tied, cuz I stumble all the time.
But now I´m taking off the shoes - and I walk barefoot all the time.
Yeeeah - I´m kickin´off my SHOES and I walk barefoot - All the time!
---
My Mama often told me (I remember that she sighed)
She said son: "Why don´t You try a different kind-of-line?"
Well, I didn´t quite understand what she meant, but that´s all right
cuz now I figured out my own way to avoid that thin, blue line...

CHORUS:
I got shoes, shoes, shoes that follows me around...
they´re different kind of sneakers - they all snuck up from behind!
But in void of all those shoe-wears - I guess I´ve drawn the line
cuz from now on I am walking BAREFOOT all the time!
/YEAH!/ I´m kickin´off my shoes - and I walk BAREFOOT all the time!
---

My dad did always mention: "you gotta´make you´re mark in life!
It doesn´t matter where U go - just walk in a STRAIGHT LINE!"
But I´ve come to realize - that line curves all the time...
So I´m putting my shoes on a shelf - and walk barefoot all the time!
/YEAH/ I´m putting my shoes on the shelf and walk BAREFOOT all the time!

CHORUS:
I got shoes, shoes, shoes that follows me around...
they´re different kind of sneakers - they all snuck up from behind!
But in void of all those shoe-wears - I guess I´ve drawn the line
cuz from now on I am walking BAREFOOT all the time!
/YEAH!/ I´m kickin´off my shoes - and I walk BAREFOOT all the time!
