Blue Suede Shoes

(Carl Perkins)


      Movie version  



Version 1          Version 2          Version 3   




* Well it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready now go cat go
But don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes


Well, you can knock me down, step on my face
Slander my name all over the place
Well do anything that you wanna do
But uh uh honey lay off of them shoes
And don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Let's go cats


Well you can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from an old fruit jar
Well do anything that you wanna do
But uh uh honey lay off of my shoes
But don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
Rock it


* Repeat


Well it's blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes Yeh!
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes, baby!
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
