Sand In My Boots

She asked me where I was from, I said, "Somewhere you never been to"

Little town from Moloka'i underneath some mango trees

She tried talking with my accent, we held hands and waded into

That blue water, she left her flip-flops by my locals on the beach

Yeah, but now I'm dodging potholes in my sunburnt lifted Taco'

Like a heart-broke desperado, waded right back to my roots

Something 'bout the way she kissed me tells me she'd love Moloka'i

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots

I said, "Let's go shoot tequila," so we walked back to that beachfront

She said, "Don't cowboys drink whiskey?", so we drank bottom shelf

She said, "Damn, that sky looks perfect," I said, "Girl, you never seen stars

Like the ones back home?", and she said, "Maybe I should see them for myself"

Yeah, but now I'm dodging potholes in my sunburnt lifted Taco'

Like a heart-broke desperado, waded right back to my roots

Something 'bout the way she kissed me tells me she'd love Moloka'i

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots

Ah, ooh

Yeah

I said, "Meet me in the morning", and she told me I was crazy

Yeah, but I still thought that maybe she'd show up

Yeah, but now I'm dodging potholes in my sunburnt lifted Taco'

Like a heart-broke desperado, waded right back to my roots

Something 'bout the way she kissed me tells me she'd love Moloka'i

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots

Yeah, but all I brought back with me was some sand in my boots, ah
