Hi‐Heel Sneakers Songtext
von Sammy Davis Jr.

Put on your hi-heel sneakers
I′m taking you to town, to town, to town
Put on your hi-heel sneakers
I'm taking you to town, to town, to town, town, town, town, town
I don′t want to see nobody even looking like they're gonna start putting you down

Put on your red dress, mama, and put that wig hat on your head
I said your head, your head, your head, your head
Put on your red dress, pretty baby
Please put some kinda hair on your head
First cat tot looks at you funny, don't you know that he′s gonna be laying out dead

I want you to look real pretty, pretty as can be
Don′t want nobody looking at you, 'cause you belong to me
Don′t want to see nobody even fooling around
Just 'cause we′re living in this small kinda town
Take my knife and my gun with me, baby
And you know what will happen if I catch them looking you up and down
I'll catch them looking you up and down


Put on your high-heeled sneakers
Wear that wig hat on your head
Put on your high heels., I said your high heels
I said your high-heeled sneakers, your high-heeled sneakers
Please, please, please put the wig hat on your head
′Cause when we walk in the town pretty, baby
Don't you know that I know you're going to knock them dead?
Dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead, dead

You′re my baby, my one and only
You′re my baby, and I want you only
Put on your red dress, your high heels
Put that wig hat, put that wig hat on your head
You're gonna knock them dead
Yes, I know you′ll knock them dead
With your high heels, ha, and with your red dress, ha
And with your wig hat, ha, you're gonna knock them dead

We′ll do the four corners and any other dance
That James Brown was a thing around with
Have the popcorn, ha, ha
Do my thing, yeah, we're making it swing
So get your red dress, baby
′Cause we're going out tonight
Get your red dress, baby
Because we're going out tonight
And I know your hair looks so pretty
′Cause you′re out of sight


Let us know
Let us know, ha, let us know, let us know

Won't you got your high-heeled sneakers? Let us know
We will knock on your head
Put on your high-heeled sneaker
Put on your high-heeled sneaker
Put on the tight dress, the red dress, the tight dress
The one that makes you feel so fine
She′s all mine
She's all mine
She′s all mine
You giant turkeys, get away from my old lady, man
