Black socks
On a soppy ground
Spin circles
Round and Round
Drops and lighting
Fall on down
To the black socks
On the thirsty ground

Black socks
On hardwood floor
Tiptoe soft
To a great oak door
Boards creak
As their only chore
Against the black socks
On the traitor floor

Black socks
On a gravel road
Trying to carry
Their heavy load
Failing Until
Another pair showed
To love the black socks
On the explorers' road
