Whose Boots Am I Walkin' In

Verse

I was standin' in the field on a cool fall mornin'

My dog chasin' rabbits through the golden weeds

A cold wind hit my face, I tucked my chin low

Closed my eyes, and when I opened, things weren't like they seemed

Verse

Lookin' down, I didn’t know the boots that held my feet

Beat-up, worn out, ragged from the years

My hands were bloodied, used, and old, they told a tale

And the eyes I saw with felt the weight of forgotten tears

Chorus

Whose boots am I walkin' in, whose hands do I hold?

Whose eyes am I seein' through, whose story's being told?

I get to choose the path I take, the voice I use within

I get to choose, yes, I get to choose whose boots I'm walkin' in

Verse

Then my dog burst out chasin' down another runnin' hare

Barkin’ loud with fire in eyes I didn’t recognize

I spoke a word, but didn’t know the sound, this voice wasn’t mine

In that moment, I realized it’s a choice, a do-or-die

Chorus

Whose boots am I walkin' in, whose hands do I hold?

Whose eyes am I seein' through, whose story's being told?

I get to choose the path I take, the voice I use within

I get to choose, yes, I get to choose whose boots I'm walkin' in

Bridge

I can walk with softness, feel with kindness deep inside

Listen with an open heart, see with hope that won't subside

Compassion is my compass, and love's the road I'm on

In these boots I’m choosing, I’ll find where I belong

Chorus

Whose boots am I walkin' in, whose hands do I hold?

Whose eyes am I seein' through, whose story's being told?

I get to choose the path I take, the voice I use within

I get to choose, yes, I get to choose whose boots I'm walkin' in
