Текст песни Shoe Soul - Smokey Robinson

Oh, you know baby
Oh, you know baby

Might as well be boots or brogans or some sneakers
You've walked on me for a country mile
You take the part of me that's weak and try to make it weaker
You've got your souls confused
In case you haven't heard the news

Shoe soul
Was made for walkin' on
My soul was made for somebody to comfort
Same sound
But different as up and down
Tread softly now
Don't stampede
'Cause my soul
Is the soul you really need
Oh, you know baby

I've been your bridge over troubled water in your time of crisis
Your jacket laid across a puddle of mud
Yeah, and when you're down and out and in need I've been the nicest
Red carpet, welcome mat
But oh, my soul's worn out from that, 'cause

Shoe soul
Was made for walkin' on
My soul was made for somebody to comfort
Same sound
But for you, I lay me down
Tread softly now
Don't stampede
'Cause my soul is the soul you really need
Oh, you know baby

To walk beside
Don't mean
To be a sidewalk

Shoe soul
Was made for walkin' on
Shoe soul was made of rubber, crepe, and leather
Hey, my soul was made for holdin' on
Help me hold our souls together

Shoe soul
Was made for walkin' on
Shoe soul was made of rubber, crepe, and leather
My soul was made for holdin' on
Help me hold our souls together

Shoe soul, shoe soul
Was made for walkin' on
Shoe soul, shoe soul
Was made of rubber, crepe, and leather
My soul, my soul
Was made for holdin' on
Hold me, baby
Hold me, baby

Ooooh (Shoe soul)
(Was made for walkin' on)
(Shoe soul was made of rubber, crepe, and leather)

My soul was made for holdin' on
Help me hold our souls together
Help me, baby
Help me, baby
Help me, baby
Help me, baby
My soul was made for holdin' on
Help me hold our souls together
Help me, baby
