Shoe Shine Boy - The Mills Brothers
Written by:Chaplin Cahn
Shoe shine boy
I work hard all day
Shoe shine boy
Got no time to play
Every nickel helps a lot
So shine shine shoe shine boy
You find joy in the things you do
Shoe shine boy your seldom ever blue
You're content with what you've got
So shine shine shoe shine boy
People look at you with scorn
'Cause your clothes are worn and torn
Still you never whine
Looking up and down the street
Pleading with everyone you meet
Brother can you spare a shine
That's why shoe shine boy soon the day will come
Now shoe shine boy
Every nickel helps a lot
So shine shine shoe shine boy
People look at me with scorn
'Cause my clothes are worn and torn
Still I never whine
Looking up and down the street
Pleading with each one I meet
Brother can you spare a shine
Shoe shine boy soon the day will come
Shoe shine boy soon a tune you'll hum
Every nickel helps a lot
So shine shine shoe shine boy
So shine shine shoe shine boy
