Letra In These Shoes de Kirsty Maccoll original
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 for 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 montara caballo
(She don't like to walk. She can't ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar? Es un escandalo
(How can she be dancing? It scandalous!)
Then I met an Englishman
'Oh' he said
'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
(I don't like to walk. He can't ride the horse)
Como se puede bailar? Es un escandalo
(How can one dance? It is a scandal)
