Kristy MacColl - In These Shoes Lyrics

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 as 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
(I don’t like to dance, I can’t ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar? es un escandolo
(how can I dance? it’s a scandal)

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
(I don’t like to dance, I can’t ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar? es un escandolo
(how can I dance? it’s a scandal)
