《Shoe Shoe Shine》是美國靈魂樂組合The Dynamic Superiors於1975年發行的單曲，後被收錄於《Late Night Motown》《Heart of Soul Classics 2》等多張合輯。歌曲時長約3分45秒，曾躋身Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop單曲榜前30名，體現了摩城音樂（Motown）流派的典型風格。
作品以擦皮鞋價格變遷為意象，通過對比物價、交通等生活細節，勾勒出簡樸年代"鎳幣即可乘車遠行"的懷舊圖景。歌詞採用循環式敘事和密集的日常意象，在反覆詠嘆中傳遞"金錢有限而愛意永駐"的主題。全曲以第一人稱對話口吻消解物質欲望，融合復古節奏與直白敘事，凸顯靈魂樂特有的情感張力。

歌曲歌詞
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
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
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
Telling the story telling the story
Of glory of glory when
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
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
Shoe shoe shine used to cost a dime
A penny could buy you plenty
A nickel was the fare
To take you anywhere
