(Dangerous Toys Cover) 


Ten boots, a-battered and a-beaten 

Holes in our soles where the desert has eaten 

But they're holdin' out and they're so easy fittin' 

Just a few holes where the rattlesnakes have bitten 


They ain't too fancy and they're just a little dirty 

But they mean a lot to us, we think they're awful purty 

We wear 'em all the time, from morning to night 

If you wanna take 'em from us, then you're in for the a fight 


We wouldn't trade for whiskey or a lover 

They've taken us further than either of the other 

And when we're gone, we won't be a-carin' 

Six feet under, you know what we'll be wearin' 


Ten boots, a-rollin' and a-rompin' 

Ten boots, a-stompin' and a-kickin' up 

A cloud of dust, a might hi-ho Silver 

Ten boots, a-ten boots ain't stoppin' 


My boots an' me, oh, we're a-never knowin' 

From day to day just where we'll be a-goin' 

Down a dusty road, or a-ridin' on a rail 

Lovin' or a-fightin', they'll never fail me 

Yah ho huh
