I Wanna Go With My Boots On

Well many people dream

Of one day growing old

Swinging on some porch

With the only love they've known

Well that dream it ain't mine

And I say being young is just fine

Cause when I go son

I wanna go with my boots on

And many people say

That those are the golden years

Pants up past your chest

And hair coming out your ears

Well it don't sound like gold to me

So take heed there pony boy

Cause when I go boy

I wanna go with my boots on

Well the working life's for me

And I gotta tell you son

I still got my dignity

And I sure know how to have some fun

So before our day is through

Come on let's lace em up

Cause when I got son

I wanna go with my boots on

Now I've got many friends

Who are starting to go grey

Not long before we take their cars

And ignore every word they say

Well if that sounds right for you

Well then you can have it bud

But when I go bud

I wanna go with my boots on

Well the working life's for me

And I gotta tell you son

I still got my dignity

And I sure know how to have some fun

So before our day is through

Come on let's lace em up

Cause when I go son

Dear God

I wanna go with my boots on
