Sailing on not too far 'til I get there
All I own wrapped up tight in a sweat shirt
Ain’t no hurry been away too long
To keep on worrying where I come from
Rest my boots where I feel I should belong
Don't hold on to me
We're one my song and me
Boots and roots, there’s so much I've got to see
Boots and roots, there's so much I want to see

Sailing on not too far 'til I get there
All I own wrapped up tight in a sweat shirt
Ain't no hurry been away too long
To keep on worrying where I come from
Rest my boots where I feel I should belong
Don't hold on to me
We're one the wind and me
Boots and roots, there's so much I’ve got to see
Boots and roots, there’s so much I want to see

Sun don't shine, the geese start flying for the winter
I can wait, don’t migrate for the weather
I up and run if it turns me on
For no more reason than the tide rolls on
Hold my roots when I feel I should be gone
So now don't hold to me
We're one the tide and me
Boots and roots, there's so much I want to see
Boots and roots, there’s so much I've got to see
Ride that rail, move my tail where I want to
Said I take some ease, rest my feet if it feels good
Pick my tune, an old hoedown
Boots and roots don't you hold me down
So much to see as the world goes spinning round
I say don't hold on to me
We're one my song and me
Boots and roots, there's so much I've got to see
Boots and roots, there's so much I want to see
