Wanted man
Notorious
Got bloody hands
Fightin' bloody wars

The valley's still
Now that the deed is done
Take off those helmets then
We're going home

(chorus)
It's feels so good to be here
You know I surely missed you all
Just let me loosen up these laces
And kick these dirty boots
against the wall
Let me kick these dirty boots against the wall
(end chorus)

Forgotten man
What were you forgotten for?
Your blue collar life
Or your blue collar chores?

The line is still
Now that the day is done
Let's lose these helmet, boys
We're going home

It's feels so good to be there
I always miss them all
Just gotta loosen up these laces
And kick these dirty boots against the wall
I gotta kick these dirty boots against the wall.

dafremen Bet you thought these were your boots, didn't you? Well they aren't.

They are a yoke of slavery, a symbol of servitude. They are the only sole a working man has that the man with the money cares about.

And they aren't your boots..no.

These are work boots, not your Sunday boots or your tennis shoes. These won't be worn through to the ground for your benefit. No, every step you take in these ankle weights is for another's benefit, another's purpose..not yours.

So they may fit your feet, but they weren't bought for you.

I wanna kick these dirty boots
I gotta kick these dirty boots against the wall

I'm a wanted man
Notorious
I've got bloody hands..bloody hands
But I'm going home.

flowerock these dirty boots give me away. they show where I've been and what I've done, leave tracks and gather the dust and the mud, the color of the soil and pieces of debris. 140324
