Shoe Was On The Other Foot

Ooh, baby, ah

Sorry to disturb you

But I had to get this off my chest

I know you've been real busy

Don't have time for emotional stress

You see, taking care of home

Means more than just the rent

It means calling now and then

On occasions dropping in

And sometimes having flowers sent

What if I stayed out late

And didn't even call

Wasn't there to pick you up

Whenever you fall

If I didn't smile

And compliment you when I should

Tell me what would you do

If the shoe was on the other foot?

Still, what would you do?

Oh, I, I think you take for granted

That I'm always gonna be here

This is your final notice

Soon I'm gonna disappear

I'm not asking for a whole lot

Just think of me now and then

If you don't know what I'm saying

I don't know how this love can win

And didn't even call

Wasn't there to pick you up

Whenever you fall

If I didn't smile

And compliment you when I should

Tell me what would you do

If the shoe was on the other foot?

Well, you should do unto others

As you would have them do to you

You reap what you sow and that's how it goes

So be careful what you do

Telling you ain't no good gonna come to you

If I stayed out late and didn't even call

There to pick you up

Whenever you fall

If I didn't smile

And compliment you when I should

What would you do

If the shoe was on the other foot?

I stayed out late

And didn't even call

There to pick you up

Whenever you fall

If I didn't smile

And compliment you when I should

What would you do

The shoe was on the other foot

Tell me, tell me what would you do

If you had to, tell me

If you had to do like I do sometimes
