Well I met the man in

Montgomery Alabama

I was waitin' on a bus

And he was shinin' shoes

And I heard him say

I'm a shoeshine man

Number one in the land

A shoeshine man

Make you shine where you stand

Leave me a tip if you can

I'm a shoeshine man

Well I can sing I can dance

I can play the harmonica too

I got a brand new thing

Called the southside Montgomery Blues

You better stick around and

Watch me 'cause I'm an entertainin' fool

I'm a shoeshine man

Number one in the land

A shoeshine man

Make you shine where you stand

Leave me a tip if you can

I'm a shoeshine man

Well I learned my trade from

That rag poppin' daddy of mine

He shined a pair of alligators

Made a hundred dollar bill one time

Said when that meat gets scarce

I shine two or three pairs for a dime

I'm a shoeshine man

Number one in the land

A shoeshine man

Make you shine where you stand

Leave me a tip if you can

I'm a shoeshine man

I had a girl that helped me

She had a lotta hoochie coochie ways

She was bumpin' and grindin'

Paid that girl a dollar a day

But she was shy on age

And the law come and took her away

I'm a shoeshine man

Number one in the land

A shoeshine man

Make you shine where you stand

Leave me a tip if you can

I'm a shoeshine man
