One two buckle her shoe

Tell her she must follow you

Three four tell her that you're

The one she's been waiting for

One two buckle her shoe

Tell her she must follow you

Three four tell her that you're

The one she's been waiting for

Five six tell her you fix

Ailing hearts with magic tricks

Seven eight tell her it's fate

That she's landed on your plate

Nine ten don't say it again

You'll find the day arriving when

You wait outside her door

Baby don't wanna play no more

One two buckle her shoe

Say she can live her life with you

Three four never quiet sure

If she's worth a little bit more

Five six invent new tricks

You can add to your secret mix

Step back let her drink her fill

Seven and eight and counting still

Nine ten don't say it again

You'll find the day arriving when

You wait outside her door

Baby don't wanna play no more

She's biding her time and counting the days

Till she escapes his scheming ways

Oh I oh I

Then free of him and buckled shoes

She'll heal her heart with a barefoot blues

Oh I

And leave him wondering why

She's biding her time and counting the days

Till she escapes his scheming ways

Oh I oh I

Then free of him and buckled shoes

She'll heal her heart with a barefoot blues

Oh I

And leave him wondering why
