Hang Up Y'r Boots
Rebel Rhythms: Defying Norms and Hanging Up Boots
Lyrics

Expressing that the actions being referred to are not unique or original.
It´s all been said and done.
Suggesting that everything has already been discussed or accomplished.
You can do what ever you want.
Empowering the individual to make their choices without restriction.
If it is what you call fun.
Implies that the individual can engage in activities as long as they find them enjoyable.
You can hang around with all your pals.
Describing a social scene where the person is with friends.
Drink until you´re beat.
Suggesting excessive drinking until exhaustion.
Dirty looks to all you pass.
Noting negative reactions from others as the person walks by.
Walkin' down the streets.
Observing the person's movement through the streets.

-For six years now the same old shit.
Expressing dissatisfaction with a repetitive, unchanging situation over six years.
Has played in every town.
Highlighting the prevalence of a specific type of content in various locations.
They talked about the same old shit.
People discussing the same topics that were discussed years ago.
We did years before.
Reflecting on past experiences or events that are being revisited.
The kids today couldn't stand one song.
Indicating a shift in preferences of the current generation compared to the past.
In the pits we had back then.
Referring to energetic and intense music scenes in the past.
But now they´re older and we don´t care.
Expressing indifference towards the opinions of the younger generation.
So now they´re out again.
Noting a resurgence of interest or participation in past activities.
