< There are old feet and young feet,
> And little feet and great—
( Pretty feet.and homely, feet
( And feet that do nofc mate. -
J There are tender feet and tough feet,
S And narrow feet and wide—
) Short feet and long feet
< And feet you'd like to hide.
< Its quite a feet to cover feet,
S In style and comfort too—
\ And if this is what you're after
] I'll tell you what to do.
! Just bring your feet to WALLEE'S store,
1 And fit them in his shoes—
! Tour corns will never bother you
And you'll never have the blues.
