[length: 03:15]
[00:09.09]She wore red shoes by the newstand
[00:17.63]As the rain splashed the nickle
[00:20.36]Spilled like chablis all along the midway
[00:24.85]There’s a little bluejay
[00:26.69]Red dress, sad night
[00:32.12]One straw in a rootbeer
[00:35.76]A compact with a cracked mirror
[00:39.37]A bottle of evening in Paris perfume
[00:42.05]What’s this sad tune?
[00:45.66]He told her to wait by the magazines
[00:48.30]Take care of some business it seems
[00:51.07]Bring a raincoat
[00:52.83]Bring a suitcase
[00:58.30]Bring your dark eyes
[01:01.97]And wear those red shoes
[01:05.55]There’s a dark huddle at the bus stop
[01:09.12]Unbrellas arranged in a sad bouquet
[01:12.70]Lil’ Cesaer got caught
[01:14.56]He has going down to second
[01:16.31]He has cooled
[01:18.17]Changing stations on the chamber
[01:19.92]To steal a diamond ring
[01:22.76]From a jewelry store for his baby
[01:26.38]He loved the way she looked
[01:28.19]In those red shoes
[01:32.67]She waited by the drugstore
[01:34.40]Cesaer had never been late before
[01:37.13]Dogs bayed the moon
[01:40.71]And rattled their chains
[01:44.31]And the cold jingle of taps in a puddle
[01:47.08]Was the burgler alarm
[01:48.80]Snitchin’ on Cesaer
[01:53.35]The rain washes memories from the sidewalks
[01:58.85]And the hounds splash down the nickle
[02:00.65]Full of soldiers
[02:02.45]Santa Claus is drunk in the ski room
[02:08.78]It’s christmas eve
[02:09.62]In a sad cafe
[02:13.22]When the moon gets this way
[02:15.93]There’s a little bluejay
[02:18.68]By the newstand
[02:21.43]Red shoes, red shoes
[02:25.00]Meet me tonight by the drugstore
[02:30.43]Meet me tonight by the drugstore
[02:34.03]Meet me tonight by the drugstore
[02:37.69]We’re goin’ out tonight
[02:39.48]We’re goin’ out tonight
[02:40.35]We’re goin’ out tonight
[02:42.19]Wear your red shoes
[02:43.93]Red shoes, red shoes, red shoes, red shoes
