My old man's shoes were steel toed boots
Ripped up rawhide leather
Seams splitting like the Red Sea
So duct tape held 'em together
They've worn more tread than a Firestone
Underneath a '65 Fastback Ford
Size 12 wide, spent Saturday nights
Cuttin' rug on a bar room floor
They weren't built for speed, they weren't built for comfort
But you can bet that they were buildin' somethin'
Might not look like much to you
But there wasn't really much they couldn't walk through
They weren't flashy, they weren't classy
But they made him workin' class happy
And I'd be lucky
I'd be lucky to walk a mile in my old man's boots
They didn't bring home a fortune
But we were fortunate for doin' just fine
Sunrise to bed, they kept us fed
And the lights on most of the time
[?] joint rips on the laces
Scuffed up and scarred from heal to toe
Looked twice their age on a good day
Broken in don't even come close
They weren't built for speed, they weren't built for comfort
But you can bet that they were buildin' somethin'
Might not look like much to you
But there wasn't really much they couldn't walk through
They weren't flashy, they weren't classy
But they made him workin' class happy
And I'd be lucky
I'd be lucky to walk a mile in my old man's boots
They didn't bring home a fortune
But we were fortunate for doin' just fine
They weren't built for speed, they weren't built for comfort
But you can bet that they were buildin' somethin'
Might not look like much to you
But there wasn't really much they couldn't walk through
They weren't flashy, they weren't classy
But they made him workin' class happy
And I'd be lucky
I'd be lucky to walk a mile in my old man's boots
My old man's boots
