Lyrics

Feet Don't Fail Me Now

[Verse 1]

Can't you see

She don't want you around no more

Can't you see

That her hands pointing at the door

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Feet don't fail me now

How could anyone stay

Anyone could see it's time to go away

Time to take a powder

Open up your eyes

But it feels like my legs have been paralyzed

[Chorus]

Feet don't fail me now

Begging please don't make a fool of me

Feet don't fail me now

Please don't keep me where I should not be

Feet don't fail me now

Stop pretending that you've gone to sleep

Feet don't fail me now

Begging please don't make a fool of me

[Verse 2]

See your things piled in the hall

Turn around, there's a new picture on the wall

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Feet don't fail me now

We're the last ones to know

Anyone could see it's time for us to go

Time to hit the highway

Nothing left to do

But it feels like my shoes

Have been crazy glued

[Chorus]

Feet don't fail me now

Begging please don't make a fool of me

Feet don't fail me now

Please don't keep me where I should not be

Feet don't fail me now

Stop pretending that you've gone to sleep

Feet don't fail me now

Begging please don't make a fool of me

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Feet don't fail me now

How could anyone stay

Anyone could see it's time to go away

Time to take a powder

Open up your eyes

But it feels like my legs have been paralyzed

[Chorus]

Feet don't fail me now

Begging please don't make a fool of me

Feet don't fail me now

Please don't keep me where I should not be

Feet don't fail me now

Stop pretending that you've gone to sleep

Feet don't fail me now

Begging please don't make a fool of me

Don't make a fool of me
