Thirsty Boots - Judy Collins

作词：Eric Andersen

You've long been on the open road

You've been sleepin' in the rain

From dirty words and mud of the cells

Your clothes are dark 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

And take off your thirsty boots

And stay for a while

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

Just lookin' for the evenin'

And the mornin' in your eyes

Then tell me of the ones you see

As far as you could see

Across the plains from field to town

A marchin' to be free

And of the rusted prison gates

That tumble by degree

Like laughin' 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

Lookin' for the evenin'

And the mornin' in your eyes

I know you are no stranger down

The crooked rainbow trails

From dancing cliff edge shattered sills

Of slander shackled jails

But the melodies drift up from below

As walls are bein' scaled

Yes and all of this and more my friend

Your song shall not be failed

And take off your thirsty boots

And stay for a while

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

Just lookin' for the evenin'

And the mornin' in your eyes

And take off your thirsty boots

And stay for a while

Your feet are hot and weary

From a dusty mile

And maybe I can make you laugh

And maybe I can try

Lookin' for the evenin'

And the mornin' in your eyes
