I got a fast car, go cruisin' down the highway

A corvette stingray, I do it my way

Got a good job, makin' lots of money

I look good and I'm funny, so why'm I lonesome honey



The gypsy said the problem with you

You need some sensible shoes



Look at this black book, it's loaded with phone numbers

Potential lovers, new worlds to discover

You would think I really have it made now

New rayban shades but I'm a heartache on parade now



I walk around with the blues

I need some sensible shoes



Sensible shoes, ones that will lead me back to you

Sensible shoes, cuz you're the only lover who was ever true

I need some sensible shoes



All my friends now, they look up to me

They wish they could be a lot more like me

But they don't know and they can't see

How I'm hurtin', how I'm empty



Lost my soul when I walked out on you

I need some sensible shoes



Sensible shoes, ones that will lead me back to you

Sensible shoes, cuz you're the only lover who was ever true

I need some sensible shoes



I got a fast car, go cruisin' down the highway

A corvette stingray, I do it my way

Got a good job, makin' lots of money

I look good and I'm funny, so why'm I lonesome honey



The gypsy said the problem with you

Ah, you know



Sensible shoes, ones that will lead me back to you

Sensible shoes, cuz you're the only lover who was ever true

Sensible shoes, ones that will lead me back to you

Sensible shoes, cuz you're the only lover that was ever true

I need some sensible shoes
