These boots are made for walkin'
and that's just what they'll do

Goin' courting, goin' courting
Wear a shirt and collar when you call
Goin' courting, goin' courting
Scrape your boots before you reach the hall
Never chew tobacco any more
If you do, don't miss the cuspidor

(Chaplin & DePaul/Mercer, from "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers")

Oh, soldier, soldier, won't you marry me,
With your musket, fife and drum,
Oh no, dear maid I cannot marry you,
For I have no boots to put on,
So off she went to her grandfather's chest,
And she brought him some boots of the very very best,
And the soldier put them on...

(traditional / children's song. It goes on until the soldier is fully kitted out in clothes, boots & hat from her grandfather's chest. In the final verse his objection is:
"oh no dear maid I cannot marry you,
For I have a wife of my own")

He put on his high-heeled boots
Made of Spanish leather

Gypsy Davy (an odd version; usually it's the lady's gloves that are made of Spanish leather)

Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me.
Yeah I saw it, I saw it, I tell you no lies.
