(51,007 posts)Does your shoe have a boy inside?
What a funny place for a boy to hide.
Does your shoe have a dog there too?
A boy and a dog and a foot in a shoe.
His name is Buster Brown
And the dig is Tighe his friend
And its really just a secret
But its fun to play pretend.
So look look look through the telephone book
For the man who sells the shoes
With the picture of the boy and the dog inside
So you can out your foot in too.
Buster Brown shoes! Arf arf!

Isn't it funny how clearly you remember that stuff?

They make your feet run faster, as fast as Poll can fly".
I had a pair once, when I was about 7 years old. I wore them to school, and placed 1st in the second grade girls vs. boys relay race.
And I was 7 about ten years ago. Cough, cough!
