SHOES - STANDING AND STARING
(J.D. Versteegen; Th. van Es)
Polydor S 1210

The day I introduced her
People called me mad
Cause my baby's got a dark skin
It makes me blue and sad

Why are they standing and staring
When we are strolling by
It's between me and my baby
Don't make me wish to cry

Through all this kind of troubles
So weary and so old
How can I ever tell you
That gal is solid gold

Why are they standing and staring
When we are strolling by
It's between me and my baby
Don't make me wish to cry

I wish that I could tell you
A way to understand
That girl just means more to me
Than any other friend

Why are they standing and staring
When we are strolling by
It's between me and my baby
Don't make me wish to cry

So why should I leave my lady
Her heart is sold at me
My girl, I've, I have lost
And happiness for me

Why are they standing and staring
When we are strolling by
It's between me and my baby
Don't make me wish to cry
