Bare Footin':Robert Parker.
#2 R&B charts, #24 in UK and #7 USA in 1966.
INTRO: (x2)
#1.
Everybody get on your feet,
you make me nervous when you in your seat,
take off your shoes and pat your feet,
we're doin a dance that can't be beat.
CHORUS:
We're barefootin', we're barefootin',
we're barefootin', we're barefootin'.
#2.
Went to a party the other night,
Long Tall Sally was out of sight,
threw away her wig, and her high sneakers too,
she was doin a dance without any shoes.
CHORUS:
She was barefootin', she was barefootin',
she was barefootin', she was barefootin'.
#3.
Hey, little gal with the red dress on,
I bet you can barefoot all night long,
take off your shoes and throw them away,
come back and get them another day.
CHORUS:
We’re barefootin', we’re barefootin',
we’re barefootin', we’re barefootin'.
(INTERLUDE:)
(Everybody get barefooted..take off your shoes!)
#4.
Lil John Henry he said to Sue,
if I was barefootin' would you barefoot, too?
Sue told John, I'm thirty-two,
I was barefootin' ever since I was two.
CHORUS:
There was barefootin', there was barefootin',
there was barefootin', there was barefootin'.
OUTRO:
We barefootin', we barefootin'.
(Ahh! Hahhh!)
We barefootin', we barefootin', we barefootin',
(Don't have no shoes on!)
We barefootin', we barefootin'. (Fade.)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
