Baby, I've got plans tonight
You don't know nothin' about
I've been sitting around way too long
Trying to figure you out
But you say that you'll call, and you don't
And I'm spinning my wheels
So I'm going out tonight
In my red high heels

I'm gonna call up that old boyfriend
Who says he has it bad for me
I'm gonna take him into town
Flaunt him around for everyone to see
Well you said so yourself
Yeah, you know the deal
Nobody holds a candle to me
In my red high heels

Well, you can watch me walk if you want to, want to
I'll bet you want me back now, don't you, don't you?
I'm about to show you just how missin' me feels
In my red high heels

All those games you tried to play
Well, they ain't gonna work on me now
I put up a barbed wire fence
Around my heart
Baby, just to keep you out
Well, you thought I'd wait around forever
But, baby, get real
I just kicked you to the curb
In my red high heels

Oh, you can watch me walk if you want to, want to
I'll bet you want me back now, don't you, don't you?
I'm about to show you just how missin' me feels
In my red high heels

Oh, you can watch me walk if you want to, want to
I'll bet you want me back now, don't you, don't you?
I'm about to show you just how missin' me feels

Oh, you can watch me walk if you want to, want to
I'll bet you want me back now, don't you, don't you?
I'm about to show you just how missin' me feels
In my red high heels

In my red high heels
In my red high heels
