Written by Hank Cochran and Velma Smith

(As recorded by Patsy Cline, 11/16/60)



Ev'rything you told me I believed

You said that I was all that you'd ever need

That I made life worth livin' for you

And no one else could ever fill my shoes



(Chorus)

But them shoes don't fit me anymore

They lost their shape when I lost all that I cared for

And someone else will fill the shoes that I once wore

'Cause them shoes don't fit me anymore



When a shoe is new, it fits awful tight

When our love was new, ev'rything was right

When a shoe is old, you throw it away

Our love is like the shoes that you wore yesterday



(Repeat chorus)
