Thirsty boots
This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the I want to live
Album, and has also been released on the rocky mountain collection and the
Country roads collection albums.
Youve long been on the open road
Youve been sleepin in the rain
From dirty words and muddy cells
Youre clothes are soiled and stained
But the dirty words, the mud of cells
Will soon be judged insane
So only stop and rest yourself
And youll be off again
Oh take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hard and weary
From a dusty mile
And maybe I can make you laugh
And maybe I can try
Lookin for the evening
And the morning in your eyes
Then tell me of the ones you saw
As far as you could see
Across the plains from field to town
Marchin to be free
And of the rusted prison gates
That tumbled by degree
Like laughing children one by one
They look like you and me
So take off your thirsty boots
And stay for awhile
Your feet are hard and weary
From a dusty mile
And maybe I can make you laugh
And maybe I can try
Just lookin for the evening
And the morning in your eyes
I know you are no stranger now
A crooked rainbow trail
From dancing cliffheads shattered sills
To slander shackled jails
Where the voices drift up from below
Its walls are being scaled
Yes, all of this, and more my friend
Your song shall not be failed
John Denver, pseudonimo di Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. (1943-1997), è stato un cantautore e musicista statunitense profondamente legato al genere folk rock. Nato a Roswell, nel New Mexico, Denver ha trascorso la sua infanzia tra il Colorado e l'Arizona, influenzato dalla bellezza naturale del paesaggio occidentale americano che spesso trovava ispirazione nelle sue canzoni. Dopo aver studiato musica al college, si è trasferito a Denver, Colorado, dove ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale suonando in locali e festival folk. Nel 1970 ha firmato un contratto discografico con RCA Records e ha pubblicato il suo album di debutto, "Poems, Prayers and Promises", che ha riscosso un grande successo. Denver è diventato famoso per le sue melodie orecchiabili, i testi poetici e la sua voce calda e rassicurante. I suoi brani più famosi includono "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Annie's Song" e "Rocky Mountain High". La sua musica ha spesso celebrato la natura, l'amore per la famiglia e il desiderio di pace e armonia. Oltre alla musica, Denver si è impegnato in diverse cause ambientaliste e umanitarie, diventando un simbolo di speranza e positività per milioni di persone in tutto il mondo.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
