Text: Mellencamp John Cougar. French Shoes.
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 souls
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
CHORUS
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
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
CHORUS
Get some socks on, man!
