New Shoes (Album Version) - Paolo Nutini

Woke up cold one tuesday

I'm looking tired and feeling quite sick

I felt like there was something missing

In my day to day life

So I quickly opened the wardrobe

Pulled out some jeans and

A T-Shirt that seemed clean

Topped it off with a pair of old shoes

That were ripped around the seams

And I thought these shoes

Just don't suit me

Hey I put some new shoes on

And suddenly everything is right

I said

Hey I put some new shoes on

And everybody's smiling

It so inviting

Oh short on money

But long on time

Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine

And I'm running late

And I don't need an excuse

'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Woke up late one thursday

And I'm seeing stars

As I'm rubbing my eyes

And I felt like there were two days missing

As I focused all the time

And I made my way to the kitchen

But I had to stop

From the shock of what i found

A room full of all my friends

Dancing round and round

And I thought hello new shoes

Byebye them blues

Hey I put some new shoes on

And suddenly everything is right

I said

Hey I put some new shoes on

And everybody's smiling

It so inviting

Oh short on money

But long on time

Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine

And I'm running late

And I don't need an excuse

'Cause i'm wearing

My brand new shoes

Take me wondering

Through these streets

Where bright lights and angels meet

Stone to stone they take me on

I walking to the break on down

Take me wondering

Through these streets

Where bright lights and angels meet

Stone to stone they take me on

I walking to the break on down

Hey I put some new shoes on

And suddenly everything is right

I said

Hey I put some new shoes on

And everybody's smiling

It so inviting

Oh short on money

But long on time

Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine

And I'm running late

And I don't need an excuse

'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes

Ohhhhhh Hey I put some new shoes on

And suddenly everything is right

I said

Hey I put some new shoes on

And everybody's smiling

It so inviting

Oh short on money

But long on time

Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine

And I'm running late

And I don't need an excuse

'Cause I'm wearing my brand new shoes
