Dust on My Boots Your Memory on My Mind (First version)

[Intro] [Verse 1] I’m three hundred miles south of where we said goodbye White lines and white lies keep me company tonight Your perfume still lingers on this worn-out seat Like a ghost that won’t leave, ridin’ shotgun with me Neon signs and cheap beer, another lonely town I keep chasin’ the sunset, but the sun keeps goin’ down Every song on this radio sounds like the one we played When you swore forever, baby, then you walked away [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, the rearview’s full of leavin’ And the highway’s full of pain [Chorus] I got dust on my boots and your memory on my mind A heartache in the fast lane doin’ ninety-five I can outrun the law, but I can’t outrun you No matter how far I drive, girl, I’m still in love With the one that got away, somewhere back in yesterday Dust on my boots, your memory on my mind [Verse 2] Stopped at a honky-tonk just outside Lubbock city limits Some old boy on the jukebox singin’ ‘bout the one he misses I raised a glass to the both of us, laughed till it hurt Then I cried in my whiskey when they played our damn song first I left a twenty on the bar, walked out into the dark Heard your voice in the west Texas wind tearin’ me apart [Chorus] I got dust on my boots and your memory on my mind A heartache in the fast lane doin’ ninety-five I can outrun the law, but I can’t outrun you No matter how far I drive, girl, I’m still in love With the one that got away, somewhere back in yesterday Dust on my boots, your memory on my mind [Bridge] One of these days I’ll park this truck, let the engine finally die H**g up these keys and face the truth I’ve been outrun by goodbye But tonight I’m just a fool with a full tank and a broken heart Runnin’ from the only thing that ever felt like home [Final Chorus] Yeah, dust on my boots and your memory on my mind I’m prayin’ to the heavens that I leave you behind But every mile I roll just brings me back to you God knows I’ve tried, but I can’t say goodbye You’re the rearview mirror I can’t stop lookin’ through Dust on my boots… your memory on my mind Lord, your memory on my mind [Tag] Keep the porch light burnin’, baby… I might just find my way home.
