Steel-toe Heart

You said I'd break Said I'd bend like a dry pine limb Guess you missed All the steel runnin' under my skin Packed my tears In a box with your old bar tab Left that note On your dash like a red-flag

I got a steel-toe heart, it don't bruise that fast Boots made for walkin' on the wreck of our past You swung that doubt like a wreckin' bar I turned the blow into a battle scar You can call me stubborn, call me hard But you can't crush this steel-toe heart

You preach tough love But you fold when the wind turns cold I've hauled freight You ain't carried what I've hauled home Every scar Is a stripe that I earned, not shame You lost me When you tried puttin' tags on my name

I got a steel-toe heart, it don't bruise that fast Boots made for walkin' on the wreck of our past You swung that doubt like a wreckin' bar I turned the blow into a battle scar You can call me stubborn, call me hard But you can't crush this steel-toe heart

I ain't your project, I ain't your cure (nope)

I'm the storm rollin' off that porch You had your chance, you had your say Watch me light my own damn way (hey)

I got a steel-toe heart, it don't bruise that fast Boots made for walkin' on the wreck of our past

You swung that doubt like a wreckin' bar

I turned the blow into a battle scar

Say I'm too stubborn, say I'm hard

But you can't touch this steel-toe heart

Yeah, you can't crush this steel-toe heart (oh no)
