I buff your feet man nearly everyday then you give me a dollar, and walk shinning proud on your way and you wonder why baby I have the shoe shine blues

At Christmas I always know that you, mister shining shoes will give me a twenty dollar tip and you lighten my day, you suited sh*t so please please **** on my shoe shine blues
