The trouble I’ve got is never far behind me and the woman I’m not is really getting in my hair I don’t care I’ve got some red suede shoes.
When my collar gets hot and frayed around the edges cause the people I thought I could depend on let me down won’t wear a frown I’m wearing red suede shoes.
When this life is tightening around me I can shed these blues I can cruise in my red suede shoes.
Want to dance, wanna dance watch me glide, take things in stride When I arrive I feel so alive in my red suede shoes.
When I want to get out from someone’s low opinion of what I’m about and what they think that I should do there’s room to move in my red suede shoes.
Moving about, I step a little lighter telling you how they really elevate my mood its true wearing my red suede shoes.
The man says don’t go stepping on his blue suedes but that’s old news I can cruise in my red suede shoes.
Wanna dance, wanna dance wanna dance, gonna dance I will arrive and feel so alive in my red suede shoes.
Not my lipstick or clips for my hair Not my bracelets or rings, I don’t care Not my jacket, my shirt or my skirt but my red suede shoes.
