Lyrics
[Verse 1]
God rest in peace, that old pair of elevens
I sent those Red Wings flying up to heaven
I trusted them, and they let me down
They should've turned this old boy around
God rest in peace, that old pair of elevens
[Chorus]
I smashed that phone that didn't call you up to say I'm sorry
I crashed that truck that took me on out of town
I laid the soul six feet down that walked me out on you
Tonight, I put a bullet in my boots
[Verse 2]
Love makes a steel-hearted man lose his mind
I've never killed nothing except whiskey and time
But they let my world go up in smoke
And they let me leave, so they had to go
[Chorus]
I smashed that phone that didn't call you up to say I'm sorry
I crashed that truck that took me on out of town
I laid the soul six feet down that walked me out on you
Tonight, I put a bullet in my boots
[Bridge]
It's too late, there they are, cold and lonely in the yard
Empty as that bottle, broke as my heart
[Chorus]
I smashed that phone that didn't call you up to say I'm sorry
I crashed that truck that took me on out of town
I laid the soul six feet down that walked me out on you
Tonight, I put a bullet in my boots
Tonight, I put a bullet in my boots
[Outro]
God rest in peace, that old pair of elevens
