[00:00.00]Thirsty Boots - Eric Andersen
[00:00.82]You've long been on
[00:02.89]The open road
[00:04.77]Sleeping in the rain
[00:08.15]From dirty words
[00:10.12]And muddy cells
[00:11.72]Your clothes
[00:12.85]Are smeared and stained
[00:15.36]But the dirty words and muddy cells
[00:19.19]Will soon be judged insane
[00:22.58]So only stop to rest yourself
[00:26.54]Till you are off again
[00:31.87]And take off
[00:33.99]Your thirsty boots and stay
[00:36.89]For a while
[00:39.47]Your feet are hot and weary
[00:43.75]From a dusty mile
[00:46.58]And maybe I can
[00:48.62]Make you laugh maybe I can try
[00:53.28]I'm just looking for the evening
[00:57.61]The morning in your eyes
[01:08.30]But tell me of the ones you saw
[01:12.09]As far as you could see
[01:15.51]Across the plain from fields
[01:18.13]To town a-marching to be free
[01:22.70]And of the rusted prison gates
[01:26.30]That tumbled by decree
[01:29.99]Like laughing children one by
[01:32.65]One they looked like you and me
[01:38.72]So take off
[01:40.78]Your thirsty boots and stay
[01:43.70]For a while
[01:46.26]Your feet are hot and weary
[01:50.45]From a dusty mile
[01:53.28]And maybe I can
[01:55.29]Make you laugh maybe I can try
[02:00.04]I'm just looking for the evening
[02:04.27]And the morning in your eyes
[02:53.02]I know you are no stranger down
[02:56.72]The crooked rainbow trails
[03:00.07]From dancing cliff-edged
[03:02.39]Shattered sills of slander
[03:04.85]Shackled jails
[03:07.16]For the voices drift up from
[03:09.59]Below as the walls are being scaled
[03:14.42]Yes of this and more my friend
[03:18.12]Your song shall not be failed
[03:23.38]So take off
[03:25.43]Your thirsty boots and stay
[03:28.28]For a while
[03:30.87]Your feet are hot and weary
[03:35.03]From a dusty mile
[03:37.80]And maybe I can
[03:39.97]Make you laugh maybe I can try
[03:44.73]I'm just looking for the evening
[03:48.84]The morning in your eyes
[03:58.86]Yes you've long been on
[04:01.39]The open road
[04:03.12]Just sleeping in the rain
[04:06.57]From dirty words
[04:08.57]And muddy cells
[04:10.29]Your clothes
[04:11.29]Are smeared and stained
[04:13.84]But the dirty words and muddy
[04:16.47]Cells will soon
[04:18.52]Be hid in shame
[04:20.90]So only stop to rest yourself
[04:24.83]Till you are off again
[04:29.84]So take off
[04:32.10]Your thirsty boots and stay
[04:34.91]For a while
[04:37.57]Your feet are hot and weary
[04:41.67]From a dusty mile
[04:44.48]And maybe I can
[04:46.54]Make you laugh maybe I can try
[04:51.31]I'm just looking for the evening
[04:55.35]And the morning in your eyes
