about
"Zapatito" is Spanish for "Little Shoe". This is the soccer nickname for my 9 year old grandson. He is an awesome soccer player.
lyrics
Zapatito (Little Shoe)
My super power is soccer
My shot’ll shock a blocker
It blows right by the stopper
My aim is true
A soccer ball torpedo
I am the M.V.P.-O
They call me Zapatito
Little shoe.
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
Yes I am Zapatito
Quick as a mosquito
A supercharged neutrino
A billion watts
My dribble is a riddle
On the outside or the middle
Ain’t no goalie that’ll quibble
With my shots
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
But when I’m in my jammies
On the couch with gramps and grammie
Trade soccer ball for lambie
Snug as bugs
There’s a book that they read to me
And a peace that runs right through me
It’s looking good for me
To score some hugs
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
YAY!
My super power is soccer
My shot’ll shock a blocker
It blows right by the stopper
My aim is true
A soccer ball torpedo
I am the M.V.P.-O
They call me Zapatito
Little shoe.
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
Yes I am Zapatito
Quick as a mosquito
A supercharged neutrino
A billion watts
My dribble is a riddle
On the outside or the middle
Ain’t no goalie that’ll quibble
With my shots
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
But when I’m in my jammies
On the couch with gramps and grammie
Trade soccer ball for lambie
Snug as bugs
There’s a book that they read to me
And a peace that runs right through me
It’s looking good for me
To score some hugs
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL !
YAY!

about
Tom Smith Boston, Massachusetts
“Folk music is still a living tradition that feeds on new songs that speak of people’s wants, needs, struggles and triumphs. Tom Smith is a man who writes songs that seem like they’ve always been there. There are very few songwriters working today that I would call folksingers, but I would call Tom Smith a true folksinger.” – Dave Palmeter, WUMB-FM Boston ... more
