The girl that I intend to wed
Just bought a gift for me & said
'I bought this 'specially
For all your friends to see
Open it up, go ahead.'
'Ah, that's awful swell,' I said

I kissed her on the cheek and then
Began to read the note within
'In these you'll look real smart
Because they match your heart'
And so I took them out

Clown shoes; so what's it all about?
Oh no, not clown shoes!
Maybe I'm in for some mighty bad news

She laughed at me and called my name
And all my friends, they did the same
Thought she was sweet and swell
And look how hard I fell
And now I know I was wrong

So I'll go and put my clown shoes on
So I'll go and put my clown shoes on
So I'll go and put my clown shoes on
