Cyrus, Billy Ray - These Boots Are Made For Walkin' Lyrics






You keep a sayin' you got something for me
Something you call love but confess
You've been messin' where you shouldn't been a messin'
And now someone else is gettin' all your best

Well these boots are made for walkin' and that's just what they'll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you

You keep lyin' when you oughta be truthin'
And you keep loosin' when you ought enough bad
You keep a samin' when you oughta be changin'
Now what's right is right and you ain't been right yet

Well these boots are made for walkin'...

[guitar]

You keep playin' where you shouldn't be playin'
And you keep thinkin' that you'll never get burned
Well I've just found me a brand new box of matches
And what she knows you ain't had time to learn

Well these boots are made for walkin'...

    I 13 I agree

  4. M.... A....

    Why is this song so underrated from Billy Ray cyrus

    M.... A....

    Because he ruins it

    M.... A....

    Because it's a cover -- a really bad one.. Compare Nancy Sinatra's original which is sexy, fun, celebrates feminism and is as good an invective as anything in Dylan's catalog. It çoincides/creates the women's fashion statement of go-go boots making it very much a song of its time. In short, the original was revolutionary. This version is none of those things. Billy Ray Cyrus is messing where he shouldn't of been messing and this song is, at best, unfortunate. Nancy's version walks all over his and I'd love to see a mashup vid of her doing just that to BRC because he is the sort of guy NS is addressing in the original.

    It would have been more fun to have heard someone like Miley do this one (and I am generally underwhelmed by her) because I think she'd have had fun with it and it fits with her image as a rulebreaker and she, at least could capture the bad girl spirit that is an integral part of this iconic song.

    The only way BRC could do this song justice and present in a new light is to have a video of him singing it in drag. Until then, just no.
