Dont feel right wearing another man's shoes
Cant get a new pair until I've pad all of my dues
My cowboy boots have gotten too many holes
From getting kicked in the shins and stompin' out
But it's too far to heaven, can't hitch a free ride
Angels don't pick up losers so down on their pride
Still I stick out my thumb and I hope there's a chance cause I can't coast on my looks and fake more romance
Cause I don't want to take you down, break you down, and shake you down
I don't want to bring you up, just to leave you low
And break you down so down so down
I wasn't born no damaged goods
Just too the wrong road inward to a place all alone
Sure, I can pick out a new name, and I can wear some new clothes
Just can't change the ending of how my story goes
I don't want to take you down, break you down, and shake you down
I don't want to bring you up, just to leave you low and
Break you down so down so down
But things won't get better till I change em my own
Admit what I've done, unstitch what I've sewn
But if you travel with me, you'll just see that...?
I'm doomed to go nowhere at the aghe of 19
I don't want to take you down, break you down, and shake you down
I don't want to bring you up, just to leave you low
And break you down so down so down
