Sensible Shoes Songtext

von David Lee Roth

I got a fast car
Go cruisin' down the highway
A Corvette stingray
I do it my way
Got a good job
I'm makin' lots of money
I look good and I'm funny
So why'm I lonesome honey
The gypsy said the problem with you
You need some sensible shoes

Look at this black book
It's loaded with phone numbers
Potential lovers
New worlds to discover
You would think I
Really got it made now
New Rayban shades
But I'm a heartache on parade now
I walk around with the blues
I need some sensible shoes

Sensible shoes
Ones that'll lead me back to you
Sensible shoes
'cause you're the only lover that was ever true
I need some sensible shoes

All my friends now
They look up to me
Wish they could be
A lot more like me
But they don't know
And they can't see
How I'm hurtin'
How I'm empty
Lost my soul when I walked out on you
I need some sensible shoes

Sensible shoes
Ones that'll lead me back to you
Sensible shoes
'cause you're the only lover that was ever true
I need some sensible shoes

That's right
Yeah he knows
Walk this way

I got a fast car
Go cruisin' down the highway
A Corvette singray
I do it my way
Got a good job
I'm makin' lots of money
I look good and I'm funny
So why'm I lonesome honey
The gypsy said the problem with you...
Oh you know

Sensible shoes
Ones that'll lead me back to you
Sensible shoes
'cause you're the only lover that was ever true
I need some
Sensible shoes

All right
Nice tight fit
Must be my size
