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
