Sailin' Shoes Lyrics

Lady in a turban and a cocaine tree
Does a dance so rhythmically
She's cryin', and a singin' and having a time
and gee that cocaine tree look fine

You've got to put on your sailin shoes
Put on your sailing shoes
Everyone will start to cheer
When you put on your sailin' shoes

Jedidiah, he's got a dime
Says he catch a more fish, every time
Well if you've got a line, and I got a pole
And I'll meet you at the fishin' hole

You've got to put on your sailin shoes
Put on your sailing shoes
Everyone will start to cheer
When you put on your sailin' shoes

Doctor, doctor, I feel so bad
This is the worst day, I ever had
Have you this misery a very long time?
Well if you if, I'll lay it on the line

You've got to put on your sailin shoes
Put on your sailing shoes
Everyone will start to cheer
When you put on your sailin' shoes

can't say but judging be the cult that followed the band i sense its something from the dark seamy underbelly.

Were you around when said "cult" was following the band? Little Feat was an excellent two stage band, having played a beautiful blend of blues and New Orleans influenced rock in the 1970s, until the lead singer and song writer, Lowell George, died of an overdose in the late 1970s. About a decade later the remaining members of LIttle Feat" reformed and hired a new and excellent lead singer. They put out a hugely popular album and did an outstanding job supporting it all over the world. If a band is no longer around or popular, that doesn't translate into...

This song is about how awesome cocaine is.

First verse talks about its effects. Second verse is how it's better than pot - (Jedidiah has a dime (bag). I have a line (of cocaine) and he has a pole (or pipe). The last verse is the inevitable crash.
