on my way home from school I found her in a showcase
summer evening, the wind was cool caught me her very grace
I made up my mind swore by my teacup
not to eat until my mother gives up for my red shoes shoes shoes shoes shoes
so I won my red shoes and walked around everywhere
christmas time I held the firebrand bue hat in mayfair
big kangaroo in the zoo stopped saying coo
hate all blues I love snoooze yes I won’t lose for my red shoes shoes shoes shoes shoes
but as is often the case chewing gum and all rainy day ,muddy seashore sorry I was bold
other shoes lookin’so good oh! This fickle boy one day she went away from my shoecase
years have passed now i’m at ease on a limousine seat
wearing a dark brown suit and sunglasses so neat
but once in a while drinking a glass of Pernod
I remember when I ran down on the snow for my red shoes
