Tie My Own Shoe Blues

Gonna learn to tie my shoes
Or my shoes I might lose
I go walking down the street
With those shoes on my feet
Dancin, jumpin' in the air
Laces flying everywhere

Someone shouts
"Lace untied"
Stop before I hit my stride
Now, what do I do
Whoops, (whoops) a foot without shoe
Whenever we are going places
Someone else been tying my laces

Got the tie my own shoes blues
Loosey goosey laces too
I may trip, I may fall
Always learning after all
Gonna try get it right
Tie those laces, good and tight

Now It's time
For something new
Hold each lace in each hand
Practice til you understand
Over, under, then head down
Bow those laces, now come round
Sounds so easy, but it's not (no)

I'll repeat case you forgot
Over, under, then head down
Bow those laces, now come round
That is how you tie your laces
Whenever you are going places

Scat/Guitar solo
Bee Ah – Bah Doo - Bah Day
Sha doo bah dee da
Sha do bah dee dah day Bee da dah ba doo dah,
Bee da dah ba doo dah
A will away, there's a way

Now here's a bit of good news
You may trip, you may fall
Laugh it off have a ball
Someday you will get it right
Trying with all, all your might
Did I bite off more than I can chew
When I was trying at really tying my own shoe
Don't give up without a fight
Someday you will get it right
Look what you can do
When you tie your own shoe (Yeah)
