Shoeshine Man
Lyricist:Tom T. Hall
Well, I met the man in Montgomery, Alabama I was waiting on a bus And he was shining shoes And I heard him say
I'm a shoeshine man Number one in the land Shoeshine man Make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man
Well, I can sing, I can dance I can play the harmonica too I got a brand new thing called The Southside Montgomery Blues You better stick around and watch me 'Cause I'm an entertaining fool
I'm a shoeshine man Number one in the land Shoeshine man Make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man
Well, I learned my trade Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com From that rag poppin' daddy of mine Shined a pair of alligators Made a hundred dollar bill one time Says when that meat gets scarce He'd shine two or three pairs for a dime
I'm a shoeshine man Number one in the land Shoeshine man Make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man
I had a girl who helped me She had a lot of hoochie coochie ways She was bumpin' and grindin' Paid that girl a dollar a day But she was shy on age And the law come and took her away
I'm a shoeshine man Number one in the land Shoeshine man Make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man
