Gracie Lee Stevens - Dusty Hymn Rodeo

[Verse 1] You parked your boots by the porch Like you meant to stay all night I was braiding up my patience Under that burnt-out yard light Mama said, “Girl, pray harder” But my prayers got a wild-eyed grin ’Cause you showed up with a grin and a banjo And my halo let you in [Pre-Chorus] Now the strings go high And my knees go weak I try to act real holy But you know I can’t speak You lean in close I lose my name Then heaven starts laughing When I call your name [Chorus] Amen in boots Amen in boots You make my whole heart move Amen in boots Amen in boots Lord, you sure know what to do (amen in boots) (amen in boots) [Verse 2] There’s flour on the counter And a tomato on the floor I said I’d keep it proper But you came back through the door Your mama’s roses on your collar Your truck keys in your hand I swear I saw a trumpet cry out When you reached and took my hand [Pre-Chorus] Now the strings go high And my knees go weak I try to act real holy But you know I can’t speak You lean in close I lose my name Then heaven starts laughing When I call your name [Chorus] Amen in boots Amen in boots You make my whole heart move Amen in boots Amen in boots Lord, you sure know what to do (amen in boots) (amen in boots) [Bridge] I can sing my praise I can stomp the ground I can blame that old sunrise When you come around But I know, I know What this is about You’re my trouble, my blessing And I can’t back out [Chorus] Amen in boots Amen in boots You make my whole heart move Amen in boots Amen in boots Lord, you sure know what to do (amen in boots) (amen in boots)
