These Boots Are Made For Walkin'
Walking Away from Love's Deception
Lyrics
You keep saying you got something for me
You repeatedly claim to have something to offer me
Something you call love but confess
You label it as love, but you admit
You've been a'messin' where you shouldn't 've been a'messin'
You've been involved in situations where you shouldn't have been
And now someone else is getting all your best
Now, someone else is receiving your best qualities or attention
Well, these boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
These boots are intended for walking, and that's their purpose
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
In the future, these boots will assert themselves and tread all over you
You keep lyin' when you oughta be truthin'
You persistently lie when you should be telling the truth
You keep losing when you oughta not bet
You consistently experience losses when you shouldn't be taking risks
You keep samin' when you oughta be a'changin'
You continue following the same path when you should be changing
What's right is right but you ain't been right yet
What's morally right is clear, but you haven't adhered to it
These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
These boots are made for walking, and that's their designated action
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
Someday, these boots will assert themselves by walking all over you
You keep playing where you shouldn't be playing
You persist in engaging where it's inappropriate
And you keep thinking that you'll never get burnt,hah
You believe you won't face consequences, but I've found a way to retaliate
Well, I've just found me a brand new box of matches, yeah
I've discovered a new means to confront you
And what he knows you ain't have time to learn
And the person I've confided in knows things you haven't had time to grasp
These boots are made for walking, and that's just what they'll do
These boots have a purpose, and that's walking, just as mentioned before
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
One day, these boots will take action by walking all over you
Are you ready, boots?
A rhetorical question asking if you are prepared, boots
Start walkin'
Commencement of the action, instructing the boots to start walking
