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 siting at a bar in Guadalajara

In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes

He said: I've got a 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)
