Old Mans Boots
[Verse 1]
My old mans shoes were steel toed boots
Hooked up rawhide leather
Seams splitin like the Red sea
So duct tape held em together
They worn more tread than a Firestone underneath a 65 Fastback Ford
Size 12 wide, spent Saturday nights cuttin rug on a bar room floor
[Chorus]
They werent built for speed, they werent built for comfort
But you can bet that they were buildin somethin
Might not look like much to you but there wasnt really much they couldnt walk through
They werent flashy, they werent classy
But they made him workin class happy
And Id be lucky , Id be lucky to walk a mile in my old mans boots
[Verse 2]
They didnt bring home a fortune but we were fortunate doin just fine
Sun rised a bit, they kept us fed and the lights on most the time
Some out of joint on the laces, scuffed up and scared from heal to toe
Looked twice their age on a good day
Broken in dont even come close
[Chorus]
They werent built for speed, they werent built for comfort
But you can bet that they were buildin somethin
Might not look like much to you but there wasnt really much they couldnt walk through
They werent flashy, they werent classy
But they made him workin class happy
And Id be lucky, Id be lucky to walk a mile in my old mans boots
[Bridge]
They didnt bring home a fortune
But we were fortunate for doingjust fine
[Chorus]
They werent built for speed, they werent built for comfort
But you can bet that they were buildin somethin
Might not look like much to you but there wasnt really much they couldnt walk through
They werent flashy, they werent classy
But they made him workin class happy
And Id be lucky, Id be lucky to walk a mile in my old mans boots
My old mans boots
