Put My Little Shoes Away
Recorded by The Everly Brothers on the album "Songs Our Mother Taught
Us"
Traditional, arranged by Ike Everly

E
Mother dear, come bathe my forehead
                     B7
for I'm growing very weak
E
Mother, let one drop of water
       B7            E
fall upon my burning cheek

Chorus:
     A                               E
I'm going away to leave you, Mother darling
                    B7
and remember what I say
E            
Do this won't you please dear Mother
        B7           E
Put my little shoes away


Santa Claus, he brought them to me
with a lot of other things
I believe he brought an angel
with a pair of golden wings

Repeat chorus

Tell my loving little playmates
that I never more will play
Give them all my toys, but Mother
Put my little shoes away

Repeat chorus
