Shoeshine boy, heâ"š¬â"ž¢s makinâ"š¬â"ž¢ his money workinâ"š¬â"ž¢ dowtown on Main Street
Shoeshine boy, I know it ainâ"š¬â"ž¢t funny cleaninâ"š¬â"ž¢ everything on two feet
Get down, get down upon your knees and brush your blues away
It wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t be long â"š¬í‹Å“til Saturday night and youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be dancinâ"š¬â"ž¢ with your lady â"š¬í‹Å“til the break of day.
Shoeshine boy, donâ"š¬â"ž¢t have no ambition, just wants to be a kerbside boot black
Shoeshine boy, your daddyâ"š¬â"ž¢s getting older, gotta take the weight off his back
Get down, get down upon your knees and brush your blues away
It wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t be long â"š¬í‹Å“til Saturday night and youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be dancinâ"š¬â"ž¢ with your lady â"š¬í‹Å“til the break of day.
You know you feel so good when she comes to need you
And when youâ"š¬â"ž¢re dancinâ"š¬â"ž¢ together, you just canâ"š¬â"ž¢t beat you.
Get down, get down upon your knees and brush your blues away
It wonâ"š¬â"ž¢t be long â"š¬í‹Å“til Saturday night and youâ"š¬â"ž¢ll be dancinâ"š¬â"ž¢ with your lady â"š¬í‹Å“til the break of day.
