Font:      
Align:    
  • Thirsty boots
  • This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the I want to live
  • Album, and has also been released on the rocky mountain collection and the
  • Country roads collection albums.
  • Youve long been on the open road
  • Youve been sleepin in the rain
  • From dirty words and muddy cells
  • Youre clothes are soiled and stained
  • But the dirty words, the mud of cells
  • Will soon be judged insane
  • So only stop and rest yourself
  • And youll be off again
  • Oh take off your thirsty boots
  • And stay for awhile
  • Your feet are hard and weary
  • From a dusty mile
  • And maybe I can make you laugh
  • And maybe I can try
  • Lookin for the evening
  • And the morning in your eyes
  • Then tell me of the ones you saw
  • As far as you could see
  • Across the plains from field to town
  • Marchin to be free
  • And of the rusted prison gates
  • That tumbled by degree
  • Like laughing children one by one
  • They look like you and me
  • So take off your thirsty boots
  • And stay for awhile
  • Your feet are hard and weary
  • From a dusty mile
  • And maybe I can make you laugh
  • And maybe I can try
  • Just lookin for the evening
  • And the morning in your eyes
  • I know you are no stranger now
  • A crooked rainbow trail
  • From dancing cliffheads shattered sills
  • To slander shackled jails
  • Where the voices drift up from below
  • Its walls are being scaled
  • Yes, all of this, and more my friend
  • Your song shall not be failed
