Lyrics

You say you gettin' married
Movin' down to Georgia
I knew a girl from Atlanta once
She did a dance for me

You gonna start a business
Like no one else's business
I'm sure you'll make Atlanta
A cheaper place to be

I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes

You say you got a new car
A souped-up Mitsubishi
You remember the old Dodge
Blew the head in San Diego

But I'm savin' up my nickles
On my one night stand
Gonna buy me a Cadillac
To drive around the band

I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes

Yeah I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes
Florsheims with the weave top
Square toe and leather sole

I know Electra gonna pick me up
Any day now, anyway

I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes

Looks like your dreams are coming true
You got all you once put down
And there's nothing left to do
But pack up and leave town

Now your house is all new timber
And you're drinking puritine
I just hope that you remember
Its the dreams, not the things
That make you clean

I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes

Yeah, I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes
Florsheims with the weave top
Square toe and leather sole

I'm glad to hear you're doing well
You know its all so much good news
But I just got a new pair
Of slightly used shoes
