A Pair of Old Sneakers

Tammy Wynette & George Jones



(George)

We're just a pair of old sneakers

Stringin' each other along

Sometimes I feel just like a heel

'Cause I know in my soul, that it's wrong.



(George & Tammy)

We're just a pair of old sneakers

Kickin' each other around

Eight times a week, we play 'hide an' cheat'

'Til we've run that game in the ground.



We're just a pair of old sneakers

We know that cheatin' is wrong

We're just a pair of old sneakers

And we've been in the closet too long.



(Tammy)

We're just a pair of old sneakers

Worn out an' comin' unglued

Both wearin' rings, feelin' ashamed

Tryin' to run from the truth.



(George & Tammy)

We're just a pair of old sneakers

And nothin' can tear us apart

Living the lie and Lord knows we've tried

To stop walking on each other's heart.



We're just a pair of old sneakers

We know that cheatin' is wrong

We're just a pair of old sneakers

And we've been in the closet too long.



We're just a pair of old sneakers

And we've been in the closet too long...
