my walkin' shoes

well

you can't live with 'em

you can't live without 'em

yes

there's something mighty necessary 'bout 'em

a woman will give you the blues

she'll have you pullin'

out your hair

and wearin' out your walkin' shoes. well they just keep naggin'

until your head is saggin'

there ain't a wink a-sleepin'

when they start in weepin'

a woman will give you the blues

she'll have you bitein' off

your nails

and wearin' out your walkin' shoes. it's a losin' gamble

when you start to ramble

oh lordy

how you miss 'em

and you long to kiss 'em

'cause a woman will give you the blues

she'll have you

tossin' in your sleep

and wearin' out your walkin' shoes. well you can't live with 'em

you can't live without 'em

it's better to talk with 'em

than to talk about 'em

a woman will give you the blues

she'll have you talkin' to

yourself

and wearin' out your walkin' shoes.
