Folk and Traditional Song Lyrics:
What Kind of Shoes You Gwine to Wear

What Kind of Shoes You Gwine to Wear

What Kind of Shoes You Gwine to Wear

What kind of shoes you gwine to wear, golden shoes? (2x)
(I'm goin' to wear my old work shoes!)
Golden shoes I'm bound to wear,
And they outshine the glittering sun.

cho: Oh, yes. I'm gwine to jine that heavenly choir.
     Oh, yes, soldier of the Cross.

What kind of harp you gwine to play, golden harp? (2x)
(I'm gonna play my old French harp!)
Golden harp I'm bound to play.
And they outshine the glittering sun.

What kind of robe you gwine to wear, white robe ? (2x)
(I ain`t a-gonna wear no robe!)
Long white robe I'm bound to wear.
And they outshine the glittering sun.
What kind of crown you gwine to wear, starry crown ? (2x)
(I don't expect to get no crown!)
Starry crown I'm bound to wear.
And they outshine the glittering sun.

What kind of song you gwine to sing, happy song ? (2x)
(I'm gonna sing the blues!)
Happy song I'm bound to sing.
And there ain't no trouble any more.

What kind of day it gwine to be, happy day? (2x)
(I expect it be a hot day for me!)
Happy day it's bound to be.
When I 'pear by the glittering throne.

Recorded by Coltman, Lonesome Robin
