Lyrics
Make Sure I Got My Boots On
Key of Bb, Sw8, 4/4, 120BPM
I never done eight seconds on
A chestnut or a roan
But I’ve been cowboy in my heart
Since I was fully grown
I won’t need any makeup
Or fancy suit to wear
Don’t give me silver conchos
Or gel to hold my hair
I might not wear ‘em bowlin
Or dancin’ on the town Chorus
Make sure I got my boots on ‘fore
You put me in the ground
Be sure they’re good leather
And that the soles are thick
Don’t know which road I’ll travel
Or if I’ll get to pick
They don’t need to be fancy
Just shine ‘em up your best
I want to be presentable
When I’m put to the test
I might not wear ‘em bowlin
Or dancin’ on the town Chorus
Make sure I got my boots on ‘fore
You put me in the ground
Key to Ab
I’m sure they will understand------------ Bridge
I’m just a common man
I won’t need pretensions
They’ll know where I stand
Instrumental 8 Bars
Key to Bb
I might not wear ‘em bowlin
Or dancin’ on the town Chorus
Make sure I got my boots on ‘fore
You put me in the ground
Make sure I got my boots on ‘fore
You put me in the ground
