Pink Shoe Laces - The Chordettes

Now I’ve got a guy and his name is Dooley

He’s my guy and I love him truly

He’s not good lookin', heaven knows

But I’m wild about his crazy clothes

He wears tan shoes with pink shoelaces

A polka dot vest and man, oh, man

Tan shoes with pink shoelaces

And a big Panama with a purple hat band

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

He takes me deep-sea fishing in a submarine

We got to drive-in movies in a limousine

He’s got a whirly-birdy and a 12-foot yacht

Ah, but that’s-a not all he’s got

He’s got tan shoes with pink shoelaces

A polka dot vest and man, oh, man

Tan shoes with pink shoelaces

And a big Panama with a purple hat band

Now Dooley had a feelin' we were goin' to war

So he went out and enlisted in a fightin' corps

But he landed in the brig for raisin' such a storm

When they tried to put 'em in a uniform

He wanted tan shoes with pink shoelaces

A polka dot vest and man, oh, man

He wanted tan shoes with pink shoelaces

And a big Panama with a purple hat band

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

Now one day Dooley started feelin' sick

And he decided that he better make his will out quick

He said «Just before the angels come to carry me I want it down in writin' how to bury me.»

A’wearin tan shoes with pink shoelaces

A polka dot vest and man, oh, man

Give me tan shoes with pink shoelaces

And a big Panama with a purple hat band

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh
