Gaylords Little Shoemaker Lyrics

Little Shoemaker Lyrics

Tap, tap, stitch and tap

Making a pair of shoes



Lei scarpini
de bailare, bailare

Bailaremos tutusi

Lei scarpini de bailare,
bailare

Bailaremos con cosi



In the shoemaker's shop this
refrain would never stop

As he tapped away, working all the day

At
his bench, there was he, just as busy as a bee

Little time to lose for
the boots and shoes



But his heart went "pop" inside the little
shop

When a lovely girl set him all a-whirl

She had come to choose
some pretty dancing shoes

And he heard her say in a charming way



Shoes to set my feet a-dancing, dancing

Dancing, dancing all
the day

Shoes to set my feet a-dancing, dancing

Dancing all my
cares away



Then he tapped and he stitched for his fingers were
bewitched

And he sewed a dream into every seam

Making shoes, oh, so
neat just like magic on her feet

And he hoped she'd know that he loved her
so



But she danced, danced, danced

As though she were
entranced

Like a spinning top all around the shop

On her dainty
feet she whirled in the street

And he heard her say as she danced away



Lei scarpini de bailare, bailare

Bailaremos tutusi

Lei
scarpini de bailare, bailare

Bailaremos con cosi



Shoes to
set my feet a-dancing, dancing

Dancing all my cares away



All
my cares away
