Little Feat - Sailin' Shoes Lyrics
There's a lady in a turban, in a cocaine tree
She does a dance so rhythmically
She's cryin', and a-singin' and having a time
And don't that cocaine tree look fine
Put on your sailin' shoes
Everyone will start to cheer
When you put on your sailin' shoes
Jedidiah, he's got a dime
Says he catch a more fish, every time
Well I got a line, and you got a pole
And I'll meet you at the fishin' hole
You've got to put on your sailin' shoes
Everyone will start to cheer
When you put on your sailin' shoes
[Guitar solo]
Doctor, doctor, I feel so bad
This is the worst day I ever had
He said, have you this misery a very long time?
Well if you are ill, ball it on the line
You've got to put on your sailin' shoes
Put on your sailin' shoes
Everyone will start to cheer
When you put on your sailin' shoes

Little Feat Sailin' Shoes Comments
Makes me wanna cakewalk right into that Neon Park painting and disappear into a better world. Feets, don't fail me now.....
Lil Feat are the best - for me it started with "A Day at the Dog Races"... a different tune than the normal Feat, but I loved it and it drew me into the rest of their great music
All thanks for this wonder of music. It hits as sweetly as it did back when it was first recorded. The happiest of memories. Err - more please.
Só vim aqui por causa do filme irmãos de sangue
I'd say rock music from 1968 to 1994....after that period, it all went to shit.
Love Little Feat
Was this recorded in Paris, mick's basement? Lol I love you Lowell George. Long live the early 70s
real good song
I love the cover art.
THE ORIGINAL IS SO DIFFERENT FROM THE ROBERT PALMER THING.
The combover bunny is cryin and singin*****************

Music journalist Barney Hoskyns once wrote that on this track, Lowell out Cooders Ry. Was he wrong?
Ry Cooder is sooo cool!!!

hey thanks for sharing them lyrics. Had 8-track long ago until somebody ripped off my collection.
puttin' on my sailin' shoes
Thinkin' what the world would've turned out like had Lowell stayed a longer course...
First album I ever got, from my parents no less. I was 12, needless to say they were stunned at what their daughter was listening to! Still love it!
This song got me back and forth on the Leesburg Pike, to and from a dismal job until I put on MY sailin' shoes.
1967 - 1976 - best 10 years in music history
...Until 1985 Then theres Rap had got established !
stock atkin & waterman manufactured tat - And musics has continually gone down hill ?
There are some great bands out there if you look ! - But mostly it's tat...
Much prefer 1975 to 1985 !
@Matt Gillis
1775 to 1825 -
Well thattime frames a little bit early for me but back then you had the classicals like MOZART who started before 1775 was getting to the end of his carreer - BEETHOVEN was half way through his career at 1825 & SCHUBERT was just starting at 1825 ! HAYDN from 1805 to 1740
Just a short Liszt to help clear things up
A lot of these classicals opened the doors for others musicians like Falco with Amadeus !
Pink floyd
@Steve Birks Falco is up there with Mozart!
Remembering Lowell George today (and playing Little Feat music): April 13, 1945 – June 29, 1979.
you know, he was Linda Rondstadt's man for a while.....you look diane keaton there Madeleine
Thanks!
R.I.P George.
Today is the 40th anniversary of the death of Lowell George
Ry Cooder..yay...!!...I thought no one else knew who he was
@sgchev Ry Cooder doesn't play on this album though? Lowell george is playing the slide here for sure.
The very best music to get stoned by. Feats....Don't fail me now!
was 13 when I got this album,,,damn,,,time sails away too,,,55 now
yes it dose
No others like Lowell. ♪♫☼
awesome!
Is this some kind of joke? You can't seriously tell me that only sixteen or so people love this track??/
ill meet you at the fishin hole
shout out to all yalll
sum peeple no me ass jaja.
yes, I agree/ Lowell George and ry cooder are two of my all time slide players, also mickey jones of man, and George Harrison ,
Shows you how unreliable memories from the 70s can be ;)
it is littrle feat ;Lowell George [wonderful singing , slide ];my fave version
LOVE LITTLE FEAT SINCE EARLY 70S/LOVE THIS SONG ;ALL TIME FAVE LPSINCE 72/ TRUE LEGEND ,SINGER SLIDE MAN ;LOWELL GEORGE ;AWESOME LIVE
like this song :)
not my favorite, but definitely in my top 5
By far my favorite movie of all time. Even better than The Godfather and The Good The Bad And The Ugly...
Ry Cooder feel
Awesome song! We lost him a such a young age. So Sad!
you're probably more familiar with the live version from Waiting for Columbia
Columbus
it is indeed...
Is this really Little Feat? It sounds darned close (especially the instrumentation) but the lead voice doesn't sound right - although it's been years sine I heard this....
leaves of grass
A classic under the radar.
