Pat Fortney - Pair of Shoes Lyrics

Scotty returned after failing on his own
He came home broke; and all alone
And everyone he tried to count on
Just shook their head and just kept moving on

Yea, they just moved past him

They showed him the soles of their shoes
Said there was nothing that they would do
To try to help him make it through
So he dreams of lighter shoes

Scotty dreams of an easier pair of shoes
Something more comfortable; something brand new
But everything he tries on
Walks the same hard path he's already on

He's been on that path for way too long

He's gotta find the right shoes
To walk down a path that's true
He wants to change his path today
A good pair of shoes to lead the way

Scotty will find a way to make it through
He'll do it with old shoes if he can't find something new
He's got his mind made up
If not the easy way, he'll stay tough

And Scotty will stay tough

But he'll find the right pair of shoes
He'll walk in those easier shoes
He's gonna walk that easier path
He's gonna find some shoes that will last
