Very Soft Shoes Lyrics by Matt Mattox

Once Upon a Mattress (1959 Original Broadway Cast Recording)

0

[JESTER]
I am far from sentimental or romantic
And I like to think I'm strictly up to date
But at times the dancing gets a bit too frantic
In these hectic days of 1428
So indulge me as I pause to raise my chalice
To a quaint and charming dance they used to do
In the days when my dear father played the palace
Back in 1392
My dad was
Debonair
And quite as light as air
In his very soft shoes!
How he could
Dip and glide
And skip and slip and slide
In his very soft shoes!
I used to stand and watch him every day
He was always smooth and cool
I used to love to hear the pеople say:
"He's a regular dancin' fool."
Hе barely
Touched the ground
And never made a sound
But I've noticed in all his reviews
That when he took his bow
To the crowd and the crown
The crowd went crazy and the house came down
When Daddy wore his
Very soft shoes
And when he took his bow
To the crowd and the crown
The crowd went crazy and the house came down
When Daddy wore his
Very soft shhhoes
