Jerry Jeff Walker — Dust on My Boots lyrics

Lyrics

I started travelin'
A mind to unravel
Footloose tramp
Now the nights
I’m singing a different song now
Don’t believe I’ll ever change my ways
'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
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
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
'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
Yeah gal, keep walking down
See the sunshine on my way
I get the urge to roam
I know rambling’s real
