Just Boots

They're just boots, walked her home, walked away

They're just boots, punched the gas, pumped the brakes

And they might look like hell from all the hell I put em through, but they're just boots

  

They're just leather, frayed at the sole but still holding together

Had some one horse nights, but days man they've seen better

Got left out in the rain a time or two, aww but they're just boots

They may be worn and weathered, from all my dances with devil

If you ain't been where I been, they won't seem all that special

Kicked the lights, kicked the dust

Left a mark, took a scuff

If you ain't walked a mile in my shoes

Then they're just boots

They're just boots, that talked me off of a ledge when she cut loose

And brought my ass all the way back to that church pew

One step at a time we got brave and I got right

Now they walk a straighter line than they're used to

They may be worn and weathered, from all my dances with devil

If you ain't been where I been, they won't seem all that special

Kicked the lights, kicked the dust

Left a mark, took a scuff

If you ain't walked a mile in my shoes

Then they're just boots

They may be worn and weathered, from all my dances with devil

If you ain't been where I been, they won't seem all that special

Kicked the lights, kicked the dust

Left a mark, took a scuff

If you ain't walked a mile in my shoes

Then they're just boots

Shine em up wear em out, take em one more lap around

Cut a path of your own pass em down when you're gone and they're just boots
