These dusty boots ; are as old as the dust. I've been walking far ; the road's been hard. A guitar on my back ; my eyes to the front. There's been many who left ; many who led me right. Never kicked a rock ; but I've crushed a few snakes. When it rains it pours ; the night sky is thick. I married the moon ; and worked for the sun. Without a drink of water ; sometimes you gotta run. These boots are heavy ; its made me strong. Its a real blessing ; to have boots that aint made wrong.
I musta been a little slow ; to think I could keep up. She was a dancer even without the music ; and I had two left feet. These boots were made for me ; but she brought her own pair. I never thought walking alone was all that bad ; but walking with her made me think twice. Every step seemed right ; every stumble seemed nice. Turns out this road wasn't new to her ; she'd gone even farther. Where she was from ; all they did was walk. Little did i know she'd walk ; her path into mine.
Time had no limit ; we walked for ages. Our journal was the road ; our boot prints the pages. The smoke of her trail ; set my heart ablaze. The stars she followed ; left my eyes amazed. Even when the monsters that followed her ; seemed so great. She would walk right in front of them ; right to their funeral's wake. Wasn't much that her feet couldn't take ; even crushing the skulls of a snake. She could walk on water...My lady of the lake.
