Chuck E. Weiss - Red Beans and Weiss Dead Man's Shoes

Lyrics

There was Paps on the corner
Well, He wearing his shoes
He died in the lot
Too much rhythm and booze
They came to meet their maker
That showed up last night
Now they're in the window
what a frightening sight

Dead man's shoe
Don't you wear 'em tonight
Gotta mojo working'
What an awful fright
But if you put 'me on your feet
Make the wrong seem right
Dead man's shoe

There was Paps on the corner
He'd be so cute
But now it seems he's a goner
No one starts out to lose

Dead man's shoe
Dead man's shoe
Dead man's shoe
Dead man's shoe

***Guitar Solo***

Well ask Paps on the corner
Well, he wearin' his shoes
He died in the lot
Too much rhythm and booze
They came to meet their maker
That showed up last night
Now they're in the window
What a frightening sight

Dead man's shoes
Don't you wear 'em tonight
Gotta mojo workin'
What an awful fright
But if you put 'em on your feet
Make the wrong seem right
Dead man's shoe

Well ask Paps on the corner
He use to be so cute
Well, now it seems he's a goner
No one starts out to lose

Dead man's shoe
