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
