Hi Heel Sneakers

Words & Music by Robert Higginbotham

Put on your red dress baby 'cos we're going out tonight, oh yeh!
Put on your red dress baby 'cos we're going out tonight, yeh!
Well now wear some boxing gloves in case some fool might start a fight
You know what I'm sayin'

Put on your hi-heel sneakers, put your wig hat on your head, oh yeh!
Put on your hi-heel sneakers, slap that wig right on your head, yeh!
Well I'm pretty sure now baby, pretty soon you're gonna
Knock 'em dead

Oh gonna mess around baby all right!
Da da da da etc

Put on your red dress baby 'cos we're going out tonight, oh yeh!
Put on your red dress baby 'cos we're going out tonight, yeh!
Well now wear some boxing gloves in case some fool might
Start a fight
You know what I'm sayin'

Put on your hi-heel sneakers, put your wig hat on your head, oh yeh!
Put on your hi-heel sneakers, slap that wig right on your head, yeh!
Well I'm pretty sure now baby, pretty soon you're gonna
Knock 'em dead
Walk around baby!

Da da da etc

Put on your hi-heel sneakers, put your wig hat on your head, oh yeh!
Put on your hi-heel sneakers, slap that wig right on your head, yeh!
Well I'm pretty sure now baby, pretty soon you're gonna
Knock 'em dead
All right take it hoome baby!

Da da da etc
