Dust on My Boots

Verse 1
There’s a red sun rising over fields of gold,
Got a rusty truck and a heart that’s bold,
Radio playing an old love tune,
Windows down in the heat of June.

Verse 2
Gravel road singing under my wheels,
Every mile telling me how freedom feels,
A small town girl with a wild-flower smile,
Made a short stop feel like a thousand miles.

Chorus
I got dust on my boots and a song to sing,
Got the wide open sky and a broken string,
But I don’t need riches, diamonds, or crowns,
Just a little bit of love in these old towns.
Yeah the wind might blow and the rain might fall,
But this country road’s my everything, my all.

Verse 3
Mama’s porch light still shining bright,
Like a northern star in the middle of night,
Every wrong turn led me back home,
Turns out I was never alone.

Bridge
If dreams are highways, I’ll drive them slow,
Let the past be a river and just let it flow,
Every scar’s just a story I wrote,
Every tear just a line I note.

Final Chorus
I got dust on my boots and a song to sing,
Hear the church bells ring, hear the bluebirds wing,
No silver spoon, just a heart so true,
And a sky so wide and forever blue.
Yeah the wind might blow and the rain might fall,
But this country road’s my everything, my all.
