Song Lyric Sunday 8th May

Jim is our host, and Paula Light has suggested a theme of Socks, Shoes, Boots, Feet.
I initially though of These Boots Are Made For Walking, then Crocodile Shoes (which I’d used before) so digging back into the archives of my youth and the days of discos,
found this! And yes, we really did use to dance like that…….. oh the memories!!

Tiger Feet is a popular song by the English glam rock band Mud, released in January 1974. Written and produced by the songwriting team of Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn, it was the first of three number No. 1 singles for the band in the UK Singles Chart followed later that year by “Oh Boy!” and “Lonely This Christmas”.

The band appeared on Top of the Pops wearing tiger slippers.

Co-writer and producer Mike Chapman credited bassist Ray Stiles with a particularly memorable bass lick which helped fuel the success of the record.

Tiger Feet Lyrics (courtesy genius.com)

All night long you’ve been lookin’ at me
Well you know you’re the dance hall cutie that you love to be
Oh well now you’ve been layin’ it down
You got your
Hips swingin’ out of bounds
And I like the way you do what you’re doin’ to me
Alright
–

Well that’s right
That’s right
That’s right
That’s right

I really love your tiger light
And that’s neat
That’s neat
That’s neat
That’s neat

I really love your tiger feet

I really love your tiger feet

Your tiger feet
Your tiger feet
Your tiger feet

Well alright

Well flash your warning lights just as long as you like

I know you’re achin’ to be makin’ me tonight

I got a feeling in my knees
A feeling only you can please

And there ain’t no way I’m gonna let you out of my sight – alright

You’ve been layin’ it down
You got your hips swingin’ out of bound
And I like the way you do you’re doin’ to me
Alright
