Ten Boots (Stompin')

Ten boots, a-battered and a-beaten
 Holes in our soles where the desert has eaten
 But they're holdin' out and they're so easy fittin'
 Just a few holes where the rattlesnakes have bitten
 They ain't too fancy and they're just a little dirty
 But they mean a lot to us, we think they're awful purty
 We wear 'em all the time from morning to night
 If you wanna take 'em from us then you're in for a fight
 No, we wouldn't trade for whiskey or a lover
 They've taken us further than either of the other
 And when we're gone, we won't be a-carin'
 Six feet under, you know what we'll be wearin', wearin'
 They ain't too fancy and they're just a little dirty
 But they mean a lot to us, we think they're awful purty
 We wear 'em all the time from morning to night
 If you wanna take 'em from us then you're in for a fight
 Ten boots, a-rollin' and a-rompin'
 Ten boots, a-stompin' and a-kickin' up
 A cloud of dust, a mighty hi-ho silver
 Ten boots, ten boots ain't stoppin', no
 My boots an' me, oh, we're a-never knowin'
 From day to day just where we'll be a-goin'
 Down a dusty road, or a-ridin' on a rail
 Lovin' or a-fightin', they'll never fail me
 Ten boots, a-rollin' and a-rompin'
 Ten boots, a-stompin' and a-kickin' up
 A cloud of dust, a mighty hi-ho silver
 Ten boots, ten boots ain't stoppin', ain't stoppin'
 Ain't no, we ain't gonna stop, we gonna kick you into hell
 Ten boots, a-rollin' and a-rompin'
 Ten boots, a-stompin' and a-kickin' up
 A cloud of dust, a mighty hi-ho silver
 Ten boots, ten boots ain't stoppin', ain't stoppin'
 Ain't no, we ain't gonna stop, kick you into hell, once again
 Ten boots, yeah
