jack hardy - kitty in the shoeshine box lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
don’t much care if the neighbors, they stare
in the middle of the deep boondocks
the doors ain’t plumb, and the windows ain’t square
and the clock never quite tick+tocks
and the foxy’s in the henhouse and the bunny’s in the garden
and the mousie’s built a nest in the socks

[refrain]
but how could you take life seriously
when the kitty’s in the shoeshine box?

[chorus]
oh my, i almost died
jumped off a cliff but i learned to fly
lordy, lordy, lordy, life’s frown is wide
but gonna land in a big soft smile

[verse 2]
well, daddy had thе same pair of boots last year
shine ‘еm up and tie those knots
though they might be a little bit worse for wear
dancin’ jigs until the music stops
so put the music in the fiddle and the whistle and the bones
’til this old house just rocks
[refrain]
but how could you take life seriously
when the kitty’s in the shoeshine box?

[chorus]
oh my, i almost died
jumped off a bridge but i learned to fly
lordy, lordy, lordy, life’s frown is wide
but gonna land in a big soft smile

[verse 3]
that man who fell asleep with his old boots on
doesn’t look a bit like me
‘cept the smile of the child looks vaguely familiar
enough to jar your memory
like the smile of a child running dog wild
the only black sheep in the flock

[refrain]
but how could you take life seriously
when the kitty’s in the shoeshine box?

[chorus]
oh my, i almost died
hangin’ on a ledge but i learned to fly
lordy, lordy, lordy, life’s frown is wide
but gonna land in a big soft smile
[outro]
kitty’s in the shoeshine, shoeshine, shoeshine
kitty’s in the shoeshine box
kitty’s in the shoeshine, shoeshine, shoeshine
kitty’s in the shoeshine box
kitty’s in the shoeshine, shoeshine, shoeshine
kitty’s in the shoeshine box
