I Bought You The Shoes You're Walking Away In Songtext
von Al Kooper

I bought you the shoes, you′re walkin' away in
Those bright Royal Blues, that you′re goin' astray in
I spent all my money, and a whole lot of wasted time
I bought you the shoes, you gave me the blues,
And you stepped on this poor heart of mine.


I bought you the shoes, on the day that we married
Only to lose, the woman they've carried
Well I should have known, that someone who owned such beautiful shoes
Would turn right around, and walk out of town,
With a new love, and a new pair of shoes.

Well I should have known, that someone who owned such beautiful shoes
Would turn right around, and walk out of town,
With a new love and a new pair of shoes.
