Lyrics
Oooo people
People
Let me tell you
About these shoes
I?ve got a pair of shoes
These shoes are so
Fantastic
These shoes are
So wonderful.
No!
They are not Dorothy?s
But mine
That?s right, mine.
My name is not Dorothy
But I?ve got a pair of Red Ruby Slippers
I said my name is not Dorothy
But I?ve got a pair of red ruby slippers
I can click one time
And turn water into
A fine bottle of wine.
I can click two times
And make your heart
Beat out of line.
I can click three times
And make you write me
A love song
But baby
All the words
Got to rhyme
I?ll tell you people
People can?t nobody
Wear these shoes but me
These red ruby slippers
I can click four times
And make you give me
Change for a dime.
I can click five times
And make an old drunken man
Walk a straight line
I can click six times
Everything that is broke
It will be fixed.
These incredible shoes
They are mine
All mine
I?m sorry Dorothy
I?m so sorry
I said I?m sorry Dorothy
But you just
Can?t have my shoes
Listen,
I can click seven times
And tell Michael, Raphael, and Samuel
To open up
The gates to heaven
I can click on the count of eight
And make the finest man
In Hollywood give me a date
I can click nine times
And make your man
From his head to his toes
All mine.
These shoes
These wonderful shoes
I?m sorry Dorothy
Oooo Dorothy
I?m sorry
I?m sorry
You just can?t have my shoes
Now listen
I can click on the count of ten
And raise more hell than
An old cacking hen
These shoes
These shoes
My red ruby slippers
My name is not Dorothy
But I?ve got a pair of red ruby slippers
These shoes
