Nail My Shoes to the Floor

Nail My Shoes to the Floor
NAIL MY SHOES TO THE FLOOR
(Bill Anderson)
Nail my shoes to the floor, glue my coat to the door
Take my hat throw it far, far away
Hide the keys to my car and if I ask you where they are
Don’t say a word just nail my shoes to the floor.
I’ve spent the better part of my life walking in and out of doors
I’ve been a restless, reckless run around
Now something tells me you won’t let me leave but one time more
So before my feet start walking tie, me down.
Nail my shoes to the floor, glue my coat to the door
Take my hat throw it far, far away
Hide the keys to my car and if I ask you where they are
Don’t say a word just nail my shoes to the floor.
I guess I really love you and I’d die if we should part
But I’m so weak and so inclined to roam
That’s why I’m beggin' you to put your arms around my heart
And don’t let me go anywhere but home.
Nail my shoes to the floor, glue my coat to the door
Take my hat throw it far, far away
Hide the keys to my car and if I ask you where they are
Don’t say a word just nail my shoes to the floor…
