Stacey Earle - No New Shoes lyrics
No new shoes today She wears the same ones as yesterday And the day before Her red dress zipped up half her back Any further might leave the track As silver threads of Rik n' Rak spun around the floor If she'd squint her eyes a' tight enough Quicksilver turned to diamonds in the rough Spreading out the fairy dust Through the kitchen, down the hall Build a mansion with them great big tall walls Dressed up like a Baby Doll, it's tea for two And it was all that She didn't know Not what she didn't have All could only leave her Room to grow If only she knew what she had A little late for sweet sixteen, at least she Made it to the ball, and as she bowed before the queen Queen said "Gearle, have a sit, but Wear the shoe only if it fits" Then, laughed at her own quick wit She was over thrown and frostbit' Standing there with a hole in her soul She left, bare to the bone I guess her feet grew cold Running out of time Why, she ran like mad She ran, she ran For more than she had Running harder, trying to leave it all behind her She ran so far, so nothing could find her Running till she ran right out of herself Oh, she ran right into somebody else |
