Sit down, take the weight off your feet
Sit down, step off the street
They say you can tell a man by his feet
So get your shoes shined by me

Sit down, take the heat off your heels
Sit back, get yourself something sweet
They say you can tell a woman by her walk
So get your shoes shined while we talk

I don't mind, if you've got time
Then we could dine just across the street
I don't mind, if you've got time
I'm just an old man shining feet

Sit down, take a break from the day
Don't worry, we won't be late
I've had them all here on my seat
Al Pacino sat there last week

I don't mind, if you've got time
Then we could dine just across the street
I don't mind, if you've got time
I'm just an old man shining feet

Down town, I've got a shop in the street
Outside, they sell corncobs and meat
I bought it with the money I made shining feet
I buy me my sports car next week
I don't mind, if you've got time
Then we could dine just across the street
I don't mind, if you've got time
I'm just an old man shining feet
I buy me my sports car next week
I made my money shining feet
So get your shoes shined by me
