lyrics

TRUST YOUR BOOTS

Trust your boots, they’re made for walking
Mind your heart, it’s done with breaking
Trust yourself, know when to walk away

Head and heart go different ways
My hands have often strayed
What is right and what should be
Trust your boots, I hear you say

I see those signs of hate
And often walk away
Got marching in my bones
Like my dad, I won’t obey

My feet had once been free
But got weighted down with words
Soft like stones, hard like me
If birds could talk, they could not fly away
