In These Shoes?

MacColl, Kirsty
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 a 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 montar a caballo
(She doesn't like to walk, she can't ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar - es un escandolo
(How she can dance - it's outrageous!)

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
(She doesn't like to walk, she can't ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar - es un escandolo
(How she can dance - it's outrageous!)
