Toby Keith - Die With Your Boots On lyrics

Daddy was a gambler

Back in seventy-two

He had a taste for the nightlife and he

Loved his booze

He had a woman on one arm

And a tattoo on the other

It was hard to read I don't know what it said

Somethin' about my mother

I stood over his shoulder back in Bakersfield

He had some rhinestone boots with those high ridin' heels

He bet a ton of money

On a hand I thought was dead

When those sevens cleaned the table up

He just looked around and said

Sometimes you win

Sometimes you won't

Sometimes you beat that devil

Sometimes you don't

We're all just killin' time

Til the good Lord calls us home

And the best that you can hope for is to die

With your boots on

I drive a big rig from shore to shore

I've got a woman beside me

And my name out on the door

Can't make no money

If I don't outrun the man

That's why you find me streakin' through the night

Catch me if you can

Sometimes you win

Sometimes you won't

Sometimes you beat that devil

Sometimes you don't

We're all just killin' time

Til the good Lord calls us home

And the best that you can hope for is to die

Sometimes you win

Sometimes you won't

Sometimes you outrun that devil

Sometimes you don't

We're all just killin' time

Til the good Lord calls us home

And the best that you can hope for is to die

With your boots on

With your boots on
