YOU GOT YOUR TOECAPS REINFORCED WITH STEEL

HARD-WEARING SOLE AND HEEL

MAKE THOSE TIRED FEET FEEL LIKE NEW

TAKE YOUR PICK, BLACK OR BROWN

GREAT FOR THE COUNTRY OR THE MAN IN TOWN

YOU'RE GONNA NEED A QUALITY SHOE



YOU DON'T WANT NO STAND-BY PAIR

'COS THESE'LL TAKE THE WEAR AND TEAR

MADE TO TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOU

FOR THAT TRIP BY ROAD OR RAIL

FOR EXTRA GRIP ON THOSE ROCKY TRAILS

YOU'RE GONNA NEED A QUALITY SHOE



NOW THEY MAYBE AIN'T TOO HOT FOR DANCING

BUT I DON'T FORESEE TOO MUCH OF THAT

YOU AIN'T EXACTLY GONNA BE PRANCING

AROUND IN THE MOONLIGHT

WITH A CANE AND A TOP HAT



IF YOU COULD USE A CHANGE OF PACE

AND BE EXCUSED FROM THE RAT RACE

JUST TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT'S ON VIEW

LACE 'EM UP, WALK AROUND

I GUARANTEE YOU CAN'T WEAR 'EM DOWN

YOU'RE GONNA NEED A QUALITY SHOE



NOW I WISH YOU SUNNY SKIES

AND HAPPINESS WHEREVER YOU MAY GO

BUT YOU GOT TO REALISE

THERE'LL BE WIND, THERE'LL BE RAIN

AND OCCASIONAL SNOW



YOU'RE GONNA WANT TO SMILE IN THEM

IF YOU'RE GONNA WALK A MILE IN THEM

THERE'LL BE TIMES WHEN YOU'LL BE BLUE

TO LAUGH AT RAINY DAYS AND THEN

MAKE YOUR GETAWAYS IN THEM

YOU'RE GONNA NEED A QUALITY SHOE



YOU GOT YOUR TOECAPS REINFORCED WITH STEEL

HARD-WEARING SOLE AND HEEL

MAKE THOSE TIRED FEET FEEL LIKE NEW

TAKE YOUR PICK, BLACK OR BROWN

GREAT FOR THE COUNTRY OR THE MAN IN TOWN

YOU'RE GONNA NEED A QUALITY SHOE
