When we're together, I am alone
I dawdle down the street, shuffle my feet
Don't wanna go home
There's an antique store, I go inside
All I got on me is only twenty bucks and my pride
That's when I see them
My new tango shoes
They are my treasure, they're so cool
My new tango shoes
They are my ticket, my tools
My new tango shoes
They're gonna help me dance away from you
My new tango shoes
Like Cinderella, I am transformed
Suddenly I'm taller, you're smaller, I am reborn
With new courage I go downtown
To find you sitting at a table
Girls all around and they see my
My new tango shoes
They are my treasure, they're so cool
My new tango shoes
They are my ticket, my tools
My new tango shoes
They're gonna help me dance away from you
My new tango shoes
See my sexy metamorphosis
Right before your angry eyes
I stick a red rose in between my lips
Turn on my heel and dance out of your life
You told me you love me, that was untrue
Now that we're over this dance is for you
Tango!
My new tango shoes
They are my treasure, they're so cool
My new tango shoes
They are my ticket, my tools
My new tango shoes
They're gonna help me dance away from you
My new tango shoes
They are my treasure, they're so cool
My new tango shoes
They are my ticket, my tools
My new tango shoes
They're gonna help me dance away from you
My new tango shoes
