[Verse 1]
I go to work each and every mornin'
On these bad feet
Doot deeba-deeba, doot-do-do
I stand a-up seven days a week
On these feet
Doot deeba-deeba, doot-do-do
Now some people make their livin' sittin' down
And don't get out of breath
If I had to make my livin' sittin' down
People, I'd starve to death
[Pre-Chorus]
I got a corn on my left foot
I got a callus on my right
I can't wait to get a-off my job
So I can soak my feet at night
[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout bad feet
Speakin' 'bout bad feet
Don't mention them bad feet
Oh, I got a pair of bad feet, Lord
[Verse 2]
I have to walk to town to make groceries
On these bad feet
Doot deeba-deeba, doot-do-do
I done walked me a million mile
On these bad feet
Doot deeba-deeba, doot-do-do
Now these old feet have stuck with me
And thеy've never lеt me down
They feel so good when I rise every mornin'
And I hate to put 'em on the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
I got bruises on my heels
I got blisters on my toe
And everytime the sky gets cloudy
My feet wanna ache some more
[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout bad feet
Talkin' 'bout bad feet
You ain't seen no bad feet, uh
Until you seen my bad feet, Lord
[Bridge]
Baby, you know I told you
I was gonna take you to that dance that night
But I don't think I'ma be able to go
My old feets hurtin' me so bad, Lord
Won't you just stay here and help me work on my feet
So I'll be able to go to work Monday mornin'?
Man, I don't wanna help work
Work on nobody's no bad feet
I wanna go hear that band play
Now, if you can't take me
You tell me, and I'll get somebody else, shoot!
[Verse 3]
Oughta guess I'll have to go dancin'
On these bad feet
Doot deeba-deeba, doot-do-do
I don't know how long I can dance
On these bad feet
Doot deeba-deeba, doot-do-do
Now these old feet have been some mighty good feet
Lord, I can't tell no lie
And I'm gonna buy them the best pair of shoes
Anybody's money can buy
[Pre-Chorus]
I got blisters on my heels
I got blisters all under my feet
Oh, I have to rub these boys
Or I don't get no sleep
[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout bad feet
Speakin' 'bout bad feet
Don't mention no bad feet
Oh Lord, I got bad feet
[Outro]
Walk around these bad feet
Don't step on my bad feet
Beware these bad dogs, y'all
Don't step on my bad feet
Don't step on these bad dogs, y'all
