Dust On My Boots Tonight (Version 2)

Verse

Truck bed rattling down a gravel line

Sun's throwing gold on the fence post signs

Radio crackling, static and steel

Got my hand out the window just to feel

Screen door slamming, porch light hum

Friday's calling like a beating drum

Kicked my shoes off, grabbed my hat

Ain't no bringing this heart back

Pre-Chorus

So what's it gonna take

To light this whole town up

Can you feel that heartbeat

Building up, building up

Chorus

There's dust on my boots tonight

Spinning under string-light skies

Gravel road and a fiddle cry

There's dust on my boots tonight

Free as the wind, don't ask me why

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive tonight

Verse

Bonfire sparking orange in the dark

Tailgates lined up like a parking lot of hearts

Cricket song and a stomping beat

Barefoot dancing on the concrete street

Stars are scattered like a spilled-out jar

Nobody's checking how far is too far

Corn fields swaying, whispering low

Tonight I'm chasing where the feeling goes

Pre-Chorus

So what's it gonna take

To light this whole town up

Can you feel that heartbeat

Building up, building up

Chorus

There's dust on my boots tonight

Spinning under string-light skies

Gravel road and a fiddle cry

There's dust on my boots tonight

Free as the wind, don't ask me why

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive tonight

Bridge

Tomorrow's got worries, let 'em wait outside

Tonight's just this fire and the county line

No clock, no ceiling, just the wide-open air

Grab my hand, darlin', let's get lost right there

Chorus

There's dust on my boots tonight

Spinning under string-light skies

Gravel road and a fiddle cry

There's dust on my boots tonight

Free as the wind, don't ask me why

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive tonight
