These Old Blue Shoes (Solo Demo) |
LyricsThese old blue shoesI can't throw them away They remind me of the streets And the roads and the alley ways. These old blue shoes They made my hall of fame One of life's little treasures A keeper of the flame. These old blue shoes If they could what would they say? Once in a blue moon I put them on And dream about yesterday. These old shoes weren't always blue They walked in the halls of kings They new all the steps To all the dances of the day They made it to the top Kept going when the parties wouldn't stop. These old blue shoes You can bury me in them one day They ain't worth a dime To anyone else, anyway. These old blue shoes. These old blue shoes! |
| Short Song Description: A man is reminded of his younger days when he thinks about putting on his old blue shoes and dancing the night away! |
| Story Behind the Song: I wrote this song for Abraham Gross (The Dancing Machine) from Madison, Wisconsin. Abe is in his 80's now and still dances with more beautiful women than anyone I know! |
