letra de boots like emmy lou’s (live) - janis ian

[verse 1]
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d be a country star
i’d have rhinestones on my bvd’s
and a hummingbird guitar (that’s my country audience)
i’d buy myself the biggest bus
to ever grace the track
i’d have a loveseat for the two of us
and a swimming pool in back

[chorus]
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d wear my hair like loretta used to do
i’d sing like patsy cline
and kitty wells combined
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d never need a shine (i warned you)
[verse 2]
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d be so very rich
i’d hire a dog to scratch me
every time i got an itch
i’d buy a thousand cadillacs
i’d put longh-rns in the front
i’d drive ’em ’til the ashtray filled
then haul ’em to the dump

[chorus]
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d wear my hair like loretta used to do
i’d sing like patsy cline
and kitty wells combined
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d never need a shine

[bridge]
i’d buy my clothes from nudie
have fingernails like tammy
i’d tease my hair like dolly
and measure ten feet tall
i’d teach those boots to talk
we’d lecture in new york
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d never need to walk, ha!
[guitar solo]

[verse 3]
if i had boots like emmy lou’s
i’d die without a care
fly straight up to heaven’s gate
and shove my way in there
and when saint peter asked me
what i’d done to be so bold
i’d point down to my boots and say
“they’re recently re-soled”

[outro]
so fit me for a robe
give me wings and halo too
i cannot stay if you take away
my boots like emmy lou’s
i cannot stay if you take away
my boots like emmy lou’s
