When I've got shoes with wings on
The winter’s gone, the spring's on;
When I've got shoes with wings on
The town is full of rhythm and the world’s in rhyme

The neon city glows up
My pretty, pretty shows up
We'll dance until they close up
Got my guardian angel working overtime

I give Aladdin the lamp, Midas the gold
Who needs a wizard or magician
In the old tradition?
That's not competition!
I've got 'em beat a thousand fold!
Why?

'Cause I've got shoes with wings on
And living has no strings on;
I put those magic things on
And I go flying with 'em
And the town is full of rhythm
And the world’s in rhyme

(dance break)
When I’ve got shoes with wings on
The winter's gone, the spring’s on;
When I've got shoes with wings on
The town is full of rhythm and the world's in rhyme

The neon city glows up
My pretty, pretty shows up
We'll dance until they close up
Got my guardian angel working overtime

I give Aladdin the lamp, Midas the gold
Who needs a wizard or magician
In the old tradition?
That’s not competition!
I've got 'em beat a thousand fold!
Why?

'Cause I've got shoes with wings on
And living has no strings on;
I put those magic things on
And I go flying with 'em
And the town is full of rhythm
And the world's in rhyme
