Woke up cold one Tuesday I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life So I quickly opened the wardrobe Pulled out some jeans and a t-shirt that seemed clean Topped it off with a pair of old shoes That were ripped around the seams And I thought these shoes just don't suit me Hey, I put some new shoes on And suddenly everything is right I said, hey I put some new shoes on And everybody's smiling, it's so inviting Oh short on money but long on time Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine And I'm running late and I don't need an excuse 'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes Woke up late one Thursday And I'm seeing stars as I'm rubbing my eyes and I Felt like there were two days missing As I focused on the time And I made my way to the kitchen But I had to stop from the shock of what I found a room full of all my friends all are dancing round and round And I thought hello new shoes Bye bye blues Hey, I put some new shoes on And suddenly everything is right I said, hey I put some new shoes on And everybody's smiling, it's so inviting Oh short on money but long on time Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine And I'm running late and I don't need an excuse 'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes Take me wandering through these streets Where bright lights and angels meet Stone to stone they take me on I'm walking to the break of dawn Take me wandering through these streets Where bright lights and angels meet Stone to stone they take me on I'm walking to the break of dawn Hey, I put some new shoes on And suddenly everything is right I said, hey I put some new shoes on And everybody's smiling, it's so inviting Oh short on money but long on time Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine And I'm running late and I don't need an excuse 'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes Oh hey, I put some new shoes on And suddenly everything is right I said hey, I put some new shoes on And everybody's smiling, it's so inviting Oh short on money but long on time Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine And I'm running late and I don't need an excuse 'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes
