Red Boots by Susan E. Kane for her grandchildren

I’m puttin’ on my red boots, red boots, red boots on—

Puttin' on my red boots and goin' to town.

Gonna' buy myself a puppy, eyes big and brown..

Buy yourself a puppy with your red boots on?

Red boots, red boots, red boots on---

Puttin' on my red boots and goin' to town

Gonna' buy myself a cookie, crunchy and round.

Buy yourself a cookie with your red boots on?

Red boots, red boots, red boots on---

Puttin' on my red boots and goin' to town
Gonna' buy myself a bunny, soft as down.

Buy yourself a bunny with your red boots on?

Red boots, red boots, red boots on—

THEN

Mama said, “No, you can’t go to town

With your red boots on. 

No puppy, no cookie, no bunny, no town. 

Yer stayin’ home with your red boots, red boots, red boots.

You are stayin’ home with those red boots off."
