Lyrics
These old shoes on my feet
on their last leg so to speak
well I found them on a garbage heap
I love these shoes they love my feet
Well the heal came off of the left one
I nailed it on with a staple gun
and the sole came loose from the right
I got duct tape and I wrapped it tight
(repeat verse 1)
These old shoes a hobo's dream well they carried me to Abeline
and the carried me to Bowling Green
and I didn't buy any gasoline
(repeat verse 1)
