Sailing Shoes

Robert Palmer

(Lowell George)



There's a lady in a turban

In a cocaine tree

And she does a dance so rhythmically

There's a crying and a singing

Wouldn't have any time

But don't that cocaine tree look fine



But you gotta put on your sailin shoes

Put on your sailin shoes

Everyone will start to cheer

When you put on your sailin shoes



Girl doctor doctor

I feel so bad

This is the worst day I've ever had

Said happiness and misery

Misery very long time

Coz if you if I lay you on the line



But you gotta put on your sailin shoes

Put on your sailin shoes

Everyone will hip hooray

When you put on your sailin shoes



Jedidah

He's got a dime

says he catches more fish every time

Well I've gotta line

If you've got a pole

Well I'll meet you at the fishing hole



But you gotta put on your sailin shoes

Put on your sailin shoes

Everyone will start to cheer

When you put on your sailin shoes



Said, everyone put on

Put on your sailin shoes
