Well I met a man in Montgomery Alabama I was waitin` on a bus he was shinin` shoes and I heard him say I`m a shoeshine man number one in the land I`m a shoeshine man make your 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 my harmonica too I got a brand new thing called the South Side Montgomery Blues You better stick around and watch me cause I`m an entertainer fool I`m a shoeshine man...
Why I learned my trade from that rank poppin` daddy o`mine He shined pair of alligators made a hundred dollar bill on time And when the meat get scare shine two or three pairs for a dime I`m a shoeshine man...
I had a girl that helped me she had a lotta hoochy coochy ways She`s bumpin` and grindin` 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...
