French Shoes Lyrics

Artist: John Mellencamp (Buy John Mellencamp CDs)
Album: Human Wheels

He was a good lookin' guy
Stood about six foot three
Long brown hair
As nice as he could be
Everybody liked him
But he didn't have a clue
He looked silly as hell
In those funny French shoes

You know the type
Without any heels
Leather soles
Kind of a slip on deal
He was cavalier
Whether he'd win or lose
But he looked silly as hell
In those funny French shoes

I know it's not right
To judge a man by his clothes
By the way that he looks
Or the people he may know
I'm embarrassed to say
If I had to choose
I could never really trust
Any man wearing those funny French shoes

Funny French shoes
Funny French shoes
No man should be wearin'
Those funny French shoes
They look good on a woman's foot
I must say that they do
But no guy should be wearin'
Those funny French shoes

Get some socks on, man!
