Old Boots, New Dirt

Flipped a stonefish from a waitress I ain't ever met

She asked, "Are you just passing through?"

I smiled and said, "I don't know yet"

I walked around the town square

Down the street to where

I met the preacher and the old courthouse band

Yeah, nothing helps you start again like

Old boots, new dirt, no reminders

I've got a feeling this town will get me over her

You've been through what I've been through man

Nothing feels better than old boots, new dirt

There's a thousand faces that I ain't seen before

The only history that I can see is from a civil war

It's good for me to look around

Go down roads she ain't been down

No memories of our used to be's, set me free

Old boots, new dirt, no reminders

I've got a feeling this town will get me over her

You've been through what I've been through man

Nothing feels better than old boots, new dirt

Old boots, new dirt, one step closer

Yeah, I think I'm gonna like it here, yeah

You've been through what I've been through man

Nothing feels better than

Nothing else is gonna do like old boots, new dirt

Old boots, new dirt

Ooh, old boots, new dirt
