THESE BOOTS HAVE COUNTED OFF MANY A BAND
PLAYING ONE NIGHT ROADHOUSE STANDS
FOR TIPS IN EMPTY ROOMS
THESE BOOTS THEY'VE STOOD TOE TO TOE
WITH THE BIGGEST BADDEST JOE'S
LIKE THEY HAD SOMETHING TO PROVE ...THESE BOOTS
THESE BOOTS MORE THAN ONCE SAVED MY ASS
LIKE THE TIME THEY HID THAT GRASS
FROM THOSE COPS IN TUPELO
AND THESE BOOTS HAVE DANCED WITH THE DEVIL
AND NEARLY LOST THE BATTLE TO WILD IRISH ROSE
I'VE WORE OUT MORE SOLES THEN I'D CARE TO COUNT
DONE MORE STUPID THINGS THAN MOST WOULD DARE TO
KICKED MYSELF MORE TIMES THEN NOT
FOR THE ROADS THEY LEAD ME DOWN
BUT THE DAMNEDEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN 'EM DO
IS WALK OUT ON YOU
CAUSE THESE BOOTS HAD TO SEE CALIFORNIA
AND AN ARIZONA MORNING
WHERE GOD PAINTS THE SKY
AND THESE BOOTS HAD TO SPUR THAT BEAST IN CHEYENE
THOUGHT THAT BULL'ED MAKE ME A REAL MAN
AND I STILL DRAG THAT LEG SOMETIMES
NOW THESE BOOTS ARE ONE STEP FROM THE DOOR
THEY WALKED OUT OF YEARS BEFORE
I CAN ALMOST SEE HER NOW
AND THESE BOOTS OUGHTA KICK THAT DOOR A SIDE
STOMP OUT MY FOOLISH PRIDE
BUT THEY JUST TURN AROUN
