I'll walk down the wall of China
Rest my feet in Timbuctu
Sleep atop the sands of Siam
That's where I am
And I ain't taking you
Make some gumbo in Colombo
Drink some tea in Tripoli
Kiss you from the mid Pacific
It's terrific
And I ain't lookin back
Have a ball in Senegal
Join a show in Tokyo
Watch the stars on cliffs of Keny
I can't defend ya
You had your chance uh huh
(Chorus)
In these shoes I'm going to Cairo
In these shoes I'm going to New York
In these shoes your love I refuse
Cause Baby these shoes
They're too big for you
(Repeat)
Go to Oman, build a snowman
Coco trees in Helsinki
Find a ski in sweet Hawaii
Where I'm dreaming
These shoes are taking me
Bringing justice to Chicago
Saving children in Moscow
I'll do good don't ask me how
But baby now
I best be leaving you
Aliens will come and greet me
Take me to their galaxy
Name a street between the starlight
The rest of your life
You'll look up at me
