Lyrics Can’t Afford No Shoes - The Mothers of Invention

Heh-heh-heh .. .
Have you heard the news?
(News? What news?)
Can′t afford no shoes
(Ow! Get a deal on tape)
Have you heard the news?
(News? Can't afford a paper)
Can′t afford no shoes
(Hi-yo-hi)
Went to buy some cheap detergent
Some emergent nation got my load
Got my load
Got my toad
That I stowed
Well, well,
Hey lawdy mama,
Can't afford no shoes
Maybe there's a bundle of rags that I could use
Hey anybody,
Can you spare a dime
If you′re really hurtin′, a nickel would be fine
Hey everybody
Nothin' we can buy
Chump Hare Rama, ain′t no good to try
Recession
Depression
Wah-ooh-wah-ooh WAH-WAH
Wah-ooh-wah-ooh WAH-WAH
Well, well,
Hey lawdy mama,
Can't afford no shoes
Maybe there′s a bundle of rags that I could use
Hey anybody,
Can you spare a dime
If you're really hurtin′, a nickel would be fine
Hey everybody
Nothin' we can buy
Chump Hare Rama, ain't no good to try
Recession
Depression
