Artist/Band: John Denver
Lyrics for Song: Thirsty Boots
Lyrics for Album: Gold: Greatest Hits [2008]



You've long been on the open road

You've been sleeping in the rain

From dirty words and muddy cells

Your clothes are soiled and stained

But the dirty words and the muddy cells

Will soon be judged insane

So only stop and rest yourself

And you'll be off again

Oh, take off your thirsty boots

And stay for awhile

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

I'm looking for the evening

And the morning in your eyes

Then tell me of the ones you saw

As far as you could see

Across the plains from field to town

Marching to be free

And of the rusted prison gates

That tumble by debris

Like laughing children

one by one

They look like you and me

So, take off your thirsty boots

And stay for awhile

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

Looking for the evening

And the morning in your eyes

I know you are no stranger

Down crooked rainbow trails

From dancing cliffhead Scattered sills

To slander shackled jails

Where the voices drift up from below

His walls are being scaled

Yes all of this, and more my friend

Your song shall not be failed

Oh, take off your thirsty boots

And stay for awhile

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

Looking for the evening

And the morning in your eyes

Oh, take off your thirsty boots

And stay for awhile

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

Looking for the evening

And the morning in your eyes
