[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Im being dragged down, down by the hand
~#**************#~
The hand of a golden giant man
~#**************#~
Hes crushing my knuckles and splitting my skin
~#**************#~
He says hell let go, if only Id ask it of him
~#**************#~
He says, “Girl, its your call
~#**************#~
You wanna fly? You wanna fall?”
~#**************#~
So I shout, “Oh, I wanna get away from you
~#**************#~
As fast as I can”
~#**************#~
I tell my feet to move it
~#**************#~
I hope they have a plan
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are heading the right way
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Saved my life today
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
So now Im free, free
~#**************#~
From the big bad giant
~#**************#~
Who was stalking me
~#**************#~
Thank you feet, for guiding me, yeah
~#**************#~
Im glad somehow I got brains down there, at least
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are heading the right way
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Saved my life today
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Sometimes Im tempted, sometimes I am
~#**************#~
I would be lying if I said I didnt miss that giant man
~#**************#~
Oh, he was the line between pleasure and pain
~#**************#~
But me and the feet have some years to reclaim
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are heading the right way
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Saved my life today
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are heading the right way
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Saved my life today
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are heading the right way
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Are walking me away
~#**************#~
These little black sandals
~#**************#~
Saved my life today
