Boots Songtext
von Gringo

When these boots broke in and I broke out
Of this hurtin′ mindset hole
When these boots broke in and I broke out
Lord, I ain't goin′ back no more

I would drink 'til dawn
Then on that thumbin' bird′s call
On a misery
Wake up at 4 PM
Hand me some gin and start drinkin′ all over again

When these boots broke in and I broke out
Of this hurtin' mindset hole
When these boots broke in and I broke out
Lord, I ain′t goin' back no more


Woke up one cloudy day
Mama preachin′ away
About the evils of my drinkin' ways
Thought she was nuts
But I had no guts to hear the truth
But damn well

When these boots broke in and I broke out
Of this hurtin′ mindset hole
When these boots broke in and I broke out
Lord, I ain't goin' back no more

Wound up in Chicago
Sober but broke
I didn′t know what I would do
Thought about drinkin′
But that got me thinkin'
′Bout what in all the years to do

When these boots broke in and I broke out
Of this hurtin' mindset hole
When these boots broke in and I broke out
Lord, I ain′t comin' back no more
