A little shoe shine boy he never gets low down

but he's got the dirtiest job in town

bending low at the peoples feet

on a windy corner of a dirty street

when i asked him while he shined my shoes

how to you keep from getting the blues

he grinned as he raised his little head

he popped he shoe shine rag and then he said

VERSE 2
       E
Well i sat and listened to the shoe shine boy 

and i thought i was gonna jump for joy

slapped on the shoe polish left and right 

he took his shoe shine rag an he held it tight 

he stopped once to wipe the sweat away 

i said "you mighty little boy to be a-workin that way"

he said i like it with a big wide grin

kept on a poppin an he said it again

it does a million dollars worth of good for you 
     A          B7           E
get rhythm when you get the blues
