from
Start With The Soul (Rykodisc or Hannibal 1449)
All my life I've been tryin' to save
To get a pair of cowboy boots
Sixteen years of my life I gave
To get a pair of cowboy boots
I wanna go where the money's free
Hollywood is callin' me
Oh what a great big star I'll be
In a pair of cowboy boots
I'm gonna get on a t.v. show
In a pair of cowboy boots
I'm gonna ride in a rodeo-ooo
In a pair of cowboy boots
I wanna go where the badman lurk
Get me a job an' go to work
Give a lesson to Wyatt Earp
In a pair of cowboy boots
Oh give me a home
Where the swimmin' pools roll on
Where the money grows on trees
And the gals just wanna be squeezed
I'm gonna get there if I have to crawl
To get a pair of cowboy boots
Get in the movies and that ain't all
In a pair of cowboy boots
I'm gonna get me a leather vest
Gun on my hip and star on my chest
I'll be the tale of the golden west
In a pair of cowboy boots
Oh give me a home
Where the swimmin' pools roll on
Where the money grows on trees
And the gals just wanna be squeezed
I'm gonna get there if I have to crawl
To get a pair of cowboy boots
Get in the movies and that ain't all
In a pair of cowboy boots
I'm gonna get me a leather vest
Gun on my hip a star on my chest
I'll be the tale of the golden west
In a pair of cowboy boots
