Letra de Shoeshine Man

Well, I met a man in Montgomery Alabama I was waitin' on a bus and he was shinin' shoes and I heard him say. I'm a shoeshine man number one in the land A shoeshine man make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man. Well. I can sing, I can dance, I can play the harmonica too I got a brand new thing on the South Side Montgomery Blues You better stick around and watch me 'cause I'm an entertainin' fool. I'm a shoeshine man number one in the land A shoeshine man make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man. Well, I learned my trade from that rag-poppin' daddy o'mine He shined twelve alligators, made a hundred dollar bill one time And when the meat gets scarce I shine two or three pairs for a dime. I'm a shoeshine man number one in the land A shoeshine man make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man. --- Instrumental --- I had a girl that helped me she had a lotta hoochy, coochy ways She was bumping and grinding paid that girl a dollar a day But she was shy on age and the law come and took her away. I'm a shoeshine man number one in the land A shoeshine man make you shine where you stand Leave me a tip if you can I'm a shoeshine man...
