Mama's Got New Shoes
Copyright 1979 Dana Clark
VERSE: Mama's got new shoes
And her eyes are shining, shining
Mama shook her blues
And she stopped her crying, crying
She's making up for lost time
Looking so good
Feeling so fine
CHORUS: Now she's got new shoes
New shoes
She's romancing, dancing
Now she's got new shoes
VERSE: Mama's been staying home feeling low
Crying real tears and blowing her nose
Singing sad songs about loneliness
Sleeping alone, looking a mess
CHORUS
BRIDGE: Mama, you're really changing your style
You traded those tears for a big, bright smile
Daddy may not love you like he used to do
But he's not the only daddy for you
CHORUS
VERSE: Mama's been digging this living alone
Having so many callers on the telephone
She turned his picture face to the wall
And ever since she's been having a ball
CHORUS
She's got new shoes. She's stepping out!
