Hell, it’s run for the honey, glued to the show
Free to get it hushed up no, frat, no

But don’t you fuck with my shoe-swayed blues

Hell, you can knock me up, leave me in disgrace
Panhandle my love all over the place
Do everything you’re inclined to do
But no way baby, stay offa my blues

Don’t you fuck with my shoe-swayed blues
You can do everything but don’t mess with my shoe-swayed blues

You can shun my house, feel my scar
Freak me and geek me on top of your car
But no way baby, get outta my blues

Don’t you fuck with my shoe-swayed blues
You can do everything but don’t mess with my shoe-swayed blues.

Fuck it

Hell, it’s run for the honey, glued to the show
Free to get it hushed up no, frat, no

Don’t you fuck with my shoe-swayed blues
You can do everything but don’t mess with my shoe-swayed blues
No, frat, no

Shoe, shoe-swayed blues oh baby
Shoe, shoe-swayed blues uh ha
Shoe, shoe-swayed blues oh baby
Shoe, shoe-swayed blues
You can do everything but don’t mess with my shoe-swayed blues

About the Creator

Harper Lewis

Ekke Ekke Ekke Ekke Ptang Zoo Boing!

Intrusive rhyme bothers me, except as a weapon.

Intertextuality is my passion.

Formalist/ New Critical are my guiding theories.

My words are mine, not a robot’s.
