let's bury the hatchet

let's bury it deep and do what it takes

light a wet book of matches

let's run for our lives cause our lies are at stake

let's blow this dump

deliver up the daughter

dare her to jump

let's chain up the metal

put down your foot to the pedal

well then, it's all been settled:



CHORUS

damn these Heavy Boots

pull out these roots

cause these boots are heavy

damn these Heavy Boots

kick off these shoes

cause these boots are heavy

slam these heavy boots

right into these roots

cause these boots are heavy

so let's damn Heavy Boots

damn these Heavy Boots



fist in a deadlock

it rubbed me so wrong, the wrong way like ash

ego frisked from a headlock

scruples as raw, as raw as cold cash

dig in the dirt, dig in my heels

kick it where it hurts, know how it feels

ya gotta shave the personna,

hey baby slave what you wanna

but unshackle your feet, and



REPEAT CHORUS



BRIDGE



let's blur the intentions

and smudge what it stands for

reserve the pretentions

for those who judge what we dance for

let's get pissed

and buck the system

get our psyche's kissed

while our flesh is twistin

it's not very often this army recruits

so let's go Dancing In Heavy Boots.
