Dust on My Boots

Jerry Jeff Walker

[Verse 1]
I started travelin'
A mind to unravel
Footloose tramp [upon a plain?]
Now the nights [aren't warm now?]
I'm singing a different song now
Don't believe I'll ever change my ways

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a rambler
Love youth of gamble
And songs that sing a rambler's blues
No use in taking heart, gal
It ain't in my cards now
I can't kick the dust off my boots

[Verse 2]
There ain't no use in
Crying for excuses
To tell you true how I feel
Understood my leaving
So don't you go to grieving
If I say rambling's all that's real

And I say rambling's all that's real

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
There's no denying
Gal, there'll be no crying
The reason is it suits me so
Nothing more to say now
I guess I'm on my way gal
I just stopped a spell to let you know

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a rambler
Love youth of gamble
Of songs that sing a rambler's blues
No use in taking heart gal
Ain't in my cards now
I can't kick the dust off my boots
Can't kick the dust off my boots

[Outro]
Yeah gal, keep walking down
See the sunshine on my way
I get the urge to roam
I know rambling's real
