Worn Out Boots

Fool that I am
Tries to tell myself I'm a
A ramblin' man
With lots of friends around so
Ain't no use for a woman's touch 'round here

I was doin' fine
With nothin' in my fridge but
A box of wine
That's pretty much how I lived
Until she came around and knocked the dust off my shades

Just like my worn out boots
Where the rain comes through
I was empty deep down inside but
When I hold you I
I feel alright and
When I hold you I
I feel alright

She knocked me down
Threw cold water on me
I almost drowned
Then she pulled me up and
Slapped my face told me "Things gonna change round here"

She called my friends
Told 'em "Don't you ever give those"
"Pills to him"
"He's going clean and we ain't"
"Ever gonna show our faces in that lonesome bar"

Just like my worn out boots
And I was just bad news
I was empty deep down inside but
When I hold you I
I feel alright
And when I hold you I
I feel alright

Like my damn fool heart of stone
I tried to go on without her love
And there I'd sit on that barstool alone
Singin' along with those heartbreak songs
So long

Just like my worn out boots
Where the rain comes through
I was empty deep down inside but
When I hold you I
I feel alright and
When I hold you I
Feel alright and
When I hold you I
