    Lyrics: Shoe Shoe Shine / The Dynamic Superiors
    First of all
    Let's get one thing straight
    All the things you desire
    Will have to come late
    Ain't handing you no jive
    Telling you it is what it ain't
    Pretending I can do things
    That I, oh, that I can't
    But I remember (I remember)
    I remember (I remember)
    (CHORUS)
    Shoe shoe shine used to cost a dime
    A penny could buy you plenty
    A nickel was the fare
    To take you anywhere
    Troubles, we didn't have many
    I may not have much to speak of
    But there'll always be plenty of love
    You might as well get
    Rid of those crazy ideas
    Rainy days will outnumber
    The ones you see clear
    The picture in your dreams, no
    That ain't the way it's gonna be
    When you sit in your lucky chair
    All you may have is me
    Telling the story (telling the story)
    Of glory (of glory) when
    (CHORUS)
    I may not have much to speak of
    But there'll always be plenty of love
    Telling the story (telling the story)
    Of glory (of glory) when
    (CHORUS) 3X to fade

    I love the footage, it's from a time when most Black folks still cared about one another.

    I still walk the ghetto streets my parents once walked. May they both rest in peace. Shoe shoe shine used to cost a dime and a nickel could by you plenty. This beautiful song came out in 1974. I was born in 1972. I still play this jam louder than rap👋🐸

      I have never seen people who used to be back then in the 70’s like this before because I wasn’t there at that time before I came to this world in 98. Things were changing, so different back then that i didn’t look like this anymore. I wish I was born long time ago because I didn’t how twisted and crooked generation I’m in… it’s really 😔
      I was really curious what it was like back then because I already know my mom life story but I haven’t got a chance to talk and to ask my grandma Mary for the first time yet but it was okay because it was too late because she passed away at the age of 88 on October 2018. My grandma was born in January 14th 1930. I want to know more about her past. My mom told me many things about her good old days was like, through her childhood to adulthood experiences back in the old days when she was a kid in the early 70’s and in her teens at that time in the mid-late 70’s because she was born in 1963.
