Red Shoes by the Drugstore

She wore red shoes by the news-stand

As the rain splashed the nickel

Spilled like chablis along the midway

There's a little blue jayIn a red dress, on a sad night

One straw in a root-beer

A compact with a cracked mirror

And a bottle of Evening in Paris perfume, was this sad tuneTold her to wait in by the magazines

Take care of some business it seems

Bring a raincoat, bring a suitcase

And bring your dark eyes and wear those red shoesThere's a dark huddle at the bus stop

Umbrellas arranged in a sad bouquet

Lil' Ceaser got caught, he was going down to second

He was cooled, changing stations on the chamber

To steal a diamond ring from a jewelry store for his baby

He loved the way she looked in those red shoesShe waited by the drugstore

Ceaser had never been this late before

And the dogs bayed the moon

And rattled their chains

And the cold jingle of taps in a puddle

Was the burglar alarm snitchin' on CeaserNow the rain washes memories from the sidewalks

And the hounds splash down the nickel full of soldiers

Santa Claus is drunk in the ski room

Christmas eve in a sad cafe when the moon gets this wayThere's a little blue jay by the new-stand

Red shoes, red shoes

So meet me tonight by the drugstore

Meet me tonight by the drugstore

Meet me tonight by the drugstore

Goin' out tonight, we're goin' out tonight

Goin' out tonight, wear your red shoes

Red shoes, wear your red shoes

Red shoes, red shoes
