In These Shoes Songtext
von Kirsty MacColl

I once met a man with a sense of adventure
He was dressed to thrill wherever he went
He said, "let′s make love on a mountain top
Under the stars, on a big hard rock"

I said, "In these shoes?
I don't think so (What do you say, love?)
I said, "Honey, let′s do it here"

So I'm sitting at a bar in Guadalajara
In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes
He said, "I've got a powerful horse outside
Climb on the back, I′ll take you for a ride
I know a little place
We can get there ′fore the break of day"

I said "In these shoes?
No way, José"
I said, "Honey, let's stay right here"


No le gusta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Cómo se puede bailar
Es un escándalo

Then, I met an Englishman
"Oh," he said
"Won′t you walk up and down on my spine?
It makes me feel strangely alive"

I said, "In these shoes?
Oh, I doubt you'd survive"
I said, "Honey, let′s do it"

Let's stay right here

No le gusta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Cómo se puede bailar
Es un escándalo

No le gusta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Cómo se puede bailar
Es un escándalo


No le gusta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Cómo se puede bailar
Es un escándalo

Let′s stay right here

No le gusta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Cómo se puede bailar
