Dust on My Boots in Dallas

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] I was raised on County Road 12, where the stars know your name, Friday night lights and a rusted water tower, Mama packed my old guitar in a beat-up Chevrolet, Said "boy, the world is bigger than this county line" [Verse 2] Now I'm on I-35, with them lights so bright, Coffee costs ten dollars and the sky don't look the same, Elevator music where the crickets used to sing, Everybody's runnin' but nobody knows my name. [Chorus] But I got dust on my boots in Dallas, Red dirt heart in a concrete maze, They can build these towers to the heavens, But they can't take the country from my veins, I learned to read the traffic like I read the sky, I still tip my hat when the ladies walk by, Yeah, I'm lost and I'm found in Dallas, With dust on my boots. [Bridge - parte alta pro tenor] I got a drone feed watchin' cattle back home, While I'm watchin' numbers on a screen downtown, Grandpa said "son, a man can live in two worlds, As long as he remembers where his soul's from" [Final Chorus - Grande] So I keep dust on my boots in Dallas, Prayin' for rain on the pasture back home, Acoustic heart in an electric city, Learnin' that growin' up don't mean lettin' go.
