pair of boots

Luke Bryan

Real Tree wrapping paper, red ribbon round the box
Pulled em out, and I put em on
couldn t tell you what else I got
Yeah, I thought I was ten-foot tall
running round the living room
If you ask me, the best thing anybody could ever do

Buy a boy a pair of boots
he ll wear em till he wears em out
He won t know it yet, but he s a step ahead
fore they ever hit the ground
Watch him put em on and see the man he grows into
Buy a boy a pair of boots

He ll dance em like he s got two left ones
keep the right one full of lead
Kick up dust on a Friday night
with the worst part of his Sunday best
He ll be shakin in em
while he s waitin in em as she walks down
wearin that white
For better or worse, he ll kick em off
by hers for the rest of his life

Buy a boy a pair of boots
he ll wear em till he wears em out
He won t know it yet, but he s a step ahead
fore they ever hit the ground
Watch him put em on and see the man he grows into
Buy a boy a pair of boots

First thing I did when I found out he was on the way
Is drove my truck to the country store
picked out them baby snakes
Eighty-something dollars on the counter
a couple of tears in my eyes
Yeah, I knew right then how Daddy felt when he bought mine

Buy a boy a pair of boots, he ll wear em
till he wears em out
He won t know it yet, but he s a step ahead
fore they ever hit the ground
Watch him put em on and see the man he grows into
Buy a boy a pair of boots
Buy a boy a pair of boots
