I never get to where I'm goin'
It's always some place new
Runnin' from the past with every shot of Jack
And Jim on this bar stool
I can't tie myself down
To watch the dusk turn into dawn
I might hang up my hat
But I'll leave my boots on
When I found what I was looking for
It felt like I was dreamin'
Til' she slammed the door to my old Ford
And told me that she's leavin'
A different town, a different girl
Til' I figure out what went wrong
I might lay somewhere new
But I'll leave my boots on
I really hate to be this way
But I've been burned before
It's been a lot of nights and a lot of fights
And beer spilt on this floor
Don't much bother me
I've got a heart made out of stone
I might hand you my coat
But I'll leave my boots on
When I found what I was looking for
It felt like I was dreamin'
Til' she slammed the door to my old Ford
And told me that she's leavin'
A different town, a different girl
Til' I figure out what went wrong
I might lay somewhere new
But I'll leave my boots on
I can't lie to myself, you ain't no good for me
When I look ahead or look behind the only thing I see
Is your smiling eyes I miss those times I thought we'd always be
It turns out what you want ain't always what you need
'Cause when I found what I was looking for
It felt like I was dreamin'
Til' she slammed the door to my old Ford
And told me that she's leavin'
A different town, a different girl
Til' I figure out what went wrong
I might lay somewhere new
But I'll leave my boots on
I might lay somewhere new
But I'll leave my boots on
