High Heel Blues

People say to me Halie

You don't sing the blues

I tell them they're wrong

Cause I sing the blues each time I wear these shoes

You know that I love to wear some high heel shoes

I know that I really should not wear them

But I love to wear some high heel shoes

I was walking to the store

I was minding my own business

When these shoes called out from the window

They said hey girl Halie come here you need to wear us

You need to wear these high heel shoes

They'll go with everything in your closet

You really need them

You know I really should not do it

But I love to wear some high heel shoes

I walked into the store

The man came up to me

I told him to bring me all

The high heel shoes my eyes could see

Especially the ones in the window

I said the ones that called out to me

I'll try them on first

I know that I really should not do it

But I love to wear some high heel shoes

That's when I should have got up and went home

He brought me out those shoes

And I put them on my feet

And the minute I stood up

I knew that this was no place for my poor poor poor feet to be

Oh no no no no

The wrong place for feet

I knew that I really should not do it

But I love to wear some high heel shoes

And that's when all my trouble began

I told the man they did not fit

But he said lady don't you worry too much

I'll take them to the back room and I'll put them on the stretcher

They will feel real real real good in a minute

I knew he was lying, hey, hey, I knew

I knew he was lying, hey, hey, I knew

But I still believed it

Why did I? Cause I wanted those shoes

I knew that I really should not do it

But I love to wear some high heel shoes

But I don't know

I knew that I should not do it to my feet

And I bought them anyway and that is why I'm singing, I'm singing the high heel blues
