In These Shoes? Song Lyrics
I once met a man with a sense of adventure.
He was dressed to thrill wherever he went.
He said, "Let's make love on a mountain top
Under the stars on a big hard rock."
I said "In these shoes?
I don't think so."
I said "Honey, let's do it here."
So I'm sitting at a bar in Guadalajara
In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes
He said "I've got as powerful horse outside.
Climb on the back, I'll take you for a ride
I know a little place, we can get there 'fore the break of day."
I said, "In these shoes?
No way, Jose."
I said "Honey, let's stay right here."
No le gusta caminar, no puede montar a caballo.
Como se puede bailar? Es un escandolo.
Then I met an Englishman.
"Oh," he said,
(What are you afraid of?)
"Won't you walk up and down my spine?
It makes me feel strangely alive."
I said "In these shoes?
I doubt you'd survive."
I said, "Honey, let's do it."
Let's stay right here.
No le gusta caminar. No puede montar a caballo
Como se puede bailar? Es un escandolo
The translation for the Spanish portions is as follows:
(She doesn't like to walk, she can't ride a horse.
But the way she dances? It's a scandal.)
