The Eagertones – Sharkskin Boots, from the album “Rock Is What You Got”


Lyrics:
gonna buy me a pair of sharkskin boots
and i’ll be looking fine
gonna buy me a pair of sharkskin boots
gonna buy me a pair today
gonna buy me a pair of sharkskin boots
in grey, in grey, in grey

gonna buy me a pair of brand new boots
and i’ll be looking fine
some brand new boots should do the trick
we’ll see what she might say
some brand new boots should do the trick
in grey, in grey, in grey

wooden heels cowhide soles
sharkskin leather and pointed toes
i said hey, hey, hey

look at those

gonna buy me a pair of sharkskin boots
if i can only find a way
gonna buy me a pair of sharkskin boots
don’t want any other kind
gonna buy me a pair of sharkskin boots
in grey, in grey, in grey

The Eagertones – The Cut

May 19th, 2012

The Eagertones – The Cut, from the album “Rock Is What You Got”

Lyrics:

i saw you cut down
i saw you cut into pieces
i saw you get right up
and pull yourself together

i heard you cry out
i heard you cry of injustice
i heard you got right up
and pulled yourself together

and i know
there’s nothing anyone can do
to someone as strong as you
they can try
but what does it matter
they can try
but what does it matter
but still i heard you cry

i saw you roughed up
i saw you get real tough
i saw you get right up
and pull yourself together

i know that you care
i know you care for me
i know you’ll get right up
and pull us both together

and i know
there’s nothing anyone can do
to someone as strong as you
they can try
but what does it matter
they can try
but what does it matter
but still i heard you cry

The Eagertones – Sorry Boy

May 19th, 2012

The Eagertones – Sorry Boy, from the album “Rock Is What You Got”

Lyrics:

i was sitting at the beach watching the girls go by
didn’t have much else to do
when along came a bird and she caught my eye
i tried to act real cool
she sat down beside me acting anything but shy
the next move was mine i knew

and i would have whispered in her ear
all the things that girls like to hear

but my lips got stuck to my popsicle
i tried but they wouldn’t come loose
my lips got stuck to my popsicle
it was the last that i saw of her

i was sitting in a bar with a tropical drink
my mind was floating away
when along came a girl acting anything but shy
i knew this was my day
my mind worked quick i knew i had to think
of something witty and wild to say

but i spilled my drink down the front of my shirt
i was hit with a tropical punch
i spilled that drink down the front of my shirt
it was the last i saw of her

i was sitting in a club watching the girls dance
didn’t have nowhere to be
a pretty young lady looking right for romance
had her eye glued to me
she moved up beside me asked if i’d like to dance
and i knew this was my chance

but my feet got caught in my trouser leg
i ended up kissing the floor
my feet got caught in my trouser leg
it was the last i saw of her
