Runnin' With My Boots On

(专辑： Distant Rumble - 2013)

I was raised in a flower shop on a bridge
My parents working hard, I was their only kid
My father was a singer and my mama was a fan
Let me tell you the story 'bout how it all began.

Listening to records that my daddy played
From the Man in Black, to the one with the shades
I have known it from the start I'd be a singing man
I was seven years of age and got my future planned

I keep running with my boots on
Singing like an old star
I keep standing where the light is on
Singing all these old songs

Well, the guy from Memphis taught me all that is good
Kept me dreaming of a life down in Hollywood
Well, I guess I'll never make it there, but I don't care
Lost my heart to a girl, now she is my whole world

I keep running with my boots on
Singing like an old star
I keep standing where the light is on
Singing all these old songs

It was 2001 when Herman B. thought of jumping
Lost my mom to the cancer, saw the Twin Towers fall down
I got hooked on the Jack and got stoned on my own
Never saw that coming, man, I felt so alone.

I keep running with my boots on
Singing like an old star
I keep standing where the light is on
Singing all these old songs

Got that tattoo on my chest and some memories on my arms
I'm sure I'll get the reasons to get more ink done
