[Verse] Boots in the dust and the sun sinking low The prairie hums with a golden glow Cattle calls and a lasso’s throw This life’s a gamble You win You grow [Chorus] Boots in the dust Kick it up Let it fly Under the stars Where the coyotes cry Spin me round Let the fiddle sigh Boots in the dust Till the day I die [Verse 2] Saddle creaks like a whispered song The trail is rough but it pulls you along Dust in my hair But my heart’s so strong This rodeo life where I belong [Prechorus] The rhythm of hooves A steady beat The pulse of the plains beneath my feet [Chorus] Boots in the dust Kick it up Let it fly Under the stars Where the coyotes cry Spin me round Let the fiddle sigh Boots in the dust Till the day I die [Bridge] Tumbleweeds dance in a waltz with the breeze The night paints a canvas of memories Every fall Every rise It’s all that I need Boots in the dust It’s the cowboy creed
