I Bought You the Shoes You’re Walking Away In
Al Kooper, Bob Brass, Irwin Levine
(Verse 1)
I bought you the shoes you're walking away in
Those bright royal blues, that you're going astray in
I spent all my money and a whole lot of wasted time
I bought the shoes, you gave me the blues
And you stepped on this poor heart of mine
(Verse 2)
I bought you those shoes, on the day the day that we married
Only to lose, the woman they've carried
Well I should've known that someone who owned such beautiful shoes
Would turn right around and walk out of town
With a new love and a new pair of shoes
(Instrumental Bridge)
(Verse 3)
Well I should've known that someone who owned such beautiful shoes
Would turn right around and walk out of town
With a new love and a new pair of shoes
