Worn Out Boots

Fool that I am

Tries to tell myself I'm a

A ramblin' man

With lots of friends around so

Ain't no use for a woman's touch 'round here

I was doin' fine

With nothin' in my fridge but

A box of wine

That's pretty much how I lived

Until she came around and knocked the dust off my shades

Just like my worn out boots

Where the rain comes through

I was empty deep down inside but

When I hold you I

I feel alright and

When I hold you I

I feel alright

She knocked me down

Threw cold water on me

I almost drowned

Then she pulled me up and

Slapped my face told me "Things gonna change round here"

She called my friends

Told 'em "Don't you ever give those"

"Pills to him"

"He's going clean and we ain't"

"Ever gonna show our faces in that lonesome bar"

Just like my worn out boots

And I was just bad news

I was empty deep down inside but

When I hold you I

I feel alright

And when I hold you I

I feel alright

Like my damn fool heart of stone

I tried to go on without her love

And there I'd sit on that barstool alone

Singin' along with those heartbreak songs

So long

Just like my worn out boots

Where the rain comes through

I was empty deep down inside but

When I hold you I

I feel alright and

When I hold you I

Feel alright and

When I hold you I
