Sittin my front porch these days
things are lookin up / I m lookin down
Mexican yard sale / Right across my way
I m lookin out / I m puttin my name down
I wake up in the morning / I hear sweet church music
As I walk, I know I need me some new shoes
I ain t got money for these blues / as I walk
I need money for these new shoes
She said give me time / I said I ve had enough
Takin risks these days / All out luck
If I try I know I ve got all that soul leekin inside
Time these days is draggin by / Time these days is draggin by
I might as well pick up something new
And if I get some money from you
I m gonna buy me some new shoes
Cuz its walkin round these day s it s just too hard to get where I gotta get to
I need money for my brand new shoe
Brand new, snappy, snappy boots
