I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes
Lace em up tight, and walk out on you
I'm going down town before this day is through
And I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes

I've been saving nickels and dimes
Waiting for just the right time
And I woke up this morning
With a pocket of change

So I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes
Lace em up tight, and walk out on you
I'm going down town before this day is through
And I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes

We've worn that good feeling out
Tore down everything but the house
And someone's gotta to do
Something about you and me

So I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes
Lace em up tight, and walk out on you
I'm going down town before this day is through
And I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes

And it won't take me long to try this new life on
I'll be as good as we are through

I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes
Lace em up tight, and walk out on you
I'm going down town before this day is through
And I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes

I'm going down town before this day is through
And I'm gonna buy me a new pair of shoes
