Blue Suede Shoes

Words & Music:

Carl Perkins

 

            A

Well it's a-one for the money; two for the show;

                         A7

Three to get ready; now, go, cat, go!

 

CHORUS:

      D                              A

But, don't you step on my blue suede shoes!

        E                    D                    A

You can do anything, but lay off of my blue suede shoes!

 

Well you can knock me down; step on my face;

Slander my name all over the place.

You can do anything that you want to do.

But, ah-hah, honey, lay off of my shoes!

 

CHORUS:

 

Well you can burn my house; steal my car;

Drink my liquor from an old fruit jar.

You can do anything that you want to do.

But, ah-hah, honey, lay off of my shoes!

 

CHORUS:

 

Well it's a-one for the money; two for the show;

Three to get ready; now, go, cat, go!

 

CHORUS:

 

A

Blue, blue, blue suede shoes!  Blue, blue, blue suede shoes!

D                              A

Blue, blue, blue suede shoes!  Blue, blue, blue suede shoes!

        E                    D                    A

You can do anything, but lay off of my blue suede shoes!
