americans tie their shoes too tight
 i've heard all my life about love at first sight i didn't believe it - before today and tonight so you say your heart's ready to give up control but the foot treads the path that leads to my soul width length and skin tone none of that matters i'm not one for being polite let's cut through the chatter to the heart of the matter americans tie their shoes too tight fine but my tootsies are much freer than you'll see again 'cause they carry a heart that's at heart a bohemian even with this busted stump i could dance you all night and set fire to my shoes if you find them too tight in bed you put me through such paces that i forgot that i ever wore laces just give me a chance and see how i do i want to stroll barefoot into the night with you loosen up loosen up let's get loose together and fall in love and how do you feel about beer? since we're already here talking for me a bit of brewski keeps my laces from knotting i want nothing to do with a lush i don't get crazy drunk you do you'll be out on your tush i'm not a sot swear to heaven above would you even give up your red hook for love? loosen up loosen up let's get loose together and fall in love love loosens everything up so let's get loose together and fall in love tonight
