Lyrics

Written by: john mellencamp

He was a good lookin' guy
Stood about six foot three
Long brown hair
As nice as he could be
Everybody liked him
But he didn't have a clue
He looked silly as hell
In those funny french shoes

You know the type
Without any heels
Leather soles
Kind of a slip on deal
He was cavalier
Whether he'd win or lose
But he looked silly as hell
In those funny french shoes

I know it's not right
To judge a man by his clothes
By the way that he looks
Or the people he may know
I'm embarrassed to say
If I had to choose
I could never really trust
Any man wearing those funny french shoes

Funny french shoes
Funny french shoes
No man should be wearin'
Those funny french shoes
They look good on a woman's foot
I must say that they do
But no guy should be wearin'
Those funny french shoes

Get some socks on, man!
