Runnin’ with My Boots On

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 mom 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] Well, the guy from Memphis taught me all that is good Kept me dreamin' 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] It was 2001 when Herman B thought of jumpin' 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 [Chorus] 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 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 [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] 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 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 [Outro] Got that tattoo on my chest, some memories on my arms I'm sure I'll get the reasons to get more ink done
