Anne Murray - Thirsty Boots Lyrics

You've long been on the open road
You've been sleeping in the rain
From dirty words and muddy cells
Your clothes are dark and stained
But the dirty words and the mud of cells
Will soon be judged insane
So only stop and rest yourself
And you'll be off again

I know you are no stranger down
The crooked rainbow trial
From dancing cliffs and shattered sills
To slander shackled jails
Where the voices drift up from below
As walls are being scaled
Yes all of this and more my friend
Our song shall not be failed

So take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hot and weary from a dusty mile
And maybe I can make you laugh
And maybe I can try
Just looking for the evening
And the morning in your eyes

Then tell me of the ones you see
As far as you could see
Across the plains from field to town
Marching to be free
And of the rusted prison gates
That tumble by degree
Like laughing children one by one
They look like you and me

So take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hot and weary from a dusty mile
And maybe I can make you laugh
And maybe I can try
Just looking for the evening
And the morning in your eyes
