(G. Sutton, L. Kingston)





We're just a pair of old sneakers

Stringin' each other along

Sometimes I feel just like a heel

'Cause I know in my soul, that it's wrong



We're just a pair of old sneakers

Kickin' each other around

Eight times a week, we play 'hide an' cheat'

'Til we've run that game in the ground



We're just a pair of old sneakers

We know that cheatin' is wrong

We're just a pair of old sneakers

And we've been in the closet too long



We're just a pair of old sneakers

Worn out an' comin' unglued

Both wearin' rings, feelin' ashamed

Tryin' to run from the truth



We're just a pair of old sneakers

And nothin' can tear us apart

Living the lie and Lord knows we've tried

To stop walking on each other's heart



We're just a pair of old sneakers

We know that cheatin' is wrong

We're just a pair of old sneakers

And we've been in the closet too long



We're just a pair of old sneakers

And we've been in the closet too long
