LITTLE SALLY ONE SHOE
(J. Fred Coots / Jack Winters)

Rosemary Clooney


Pretty little Sally
You're 6 years old today
And it's time you paid attention
To what I have to say

Little Sally One Shoe that's your name
Always losing one shoe, what a shame
Don't you know that people watch your feet
When you walk along the street

Little Sally One Shoe, you've been told
When you take your shoes off you catch cold
Mommy makes you stay in bed all day
And you can't go out to play

Your cat and your doggie
Wear no shoes because
Your cat and your doggie 
Don't need shoes for their paws

So when you get your new shoes, black or white
Keep your pretty new shoes shiny bright
Little Sally One Shoe, don't go losing one shoe
Maybe keep your two shoes on

Your cat and your doggie
Wear no shoes because
Your cat and your doggie 
Don't need shoes for their paws

So when you get your new shoes, black or white
Keep your pretty new shoes shiny bright
Little Sally One Shoe, don't go losing one shoe
Learn to keep your two shoes on
