[Verse 1] I wore these boots thin On a hundred long roads Paid my dues in sweat With my back broke low I stacked up miles While the years ran wild Never saved for the end Thought I had time [Pre-Chorus] Now the field runs dry And the hands won't stop I should've set my fire Before the whole thing caught [Chorus] Too late now Too late now I worked my whole life Now I can't slow down Too late now Too late now I meant to go home But the bills won't bow [Verse 2] I got dust on my cuffs And a name in the mud Every scar I earned Was a little more blood I told myself I was built for the grind Now I'm sixty deep And it's workin' time [Pre-Chorus] Should've packed that bag Should've locked that gate Should've bought my peace Before it got away [Chorus] Too late now Too late now I worked my whole life Now I can't slow down Too late now Too late now I meant to go home But the bills won't bow [Bridge] I talk like a drifter But I move like a machine Clock in at sunrise Same old dream I wanted a porch I wanted a dog I wanted a chair And a long front yard [Verse 3] Now I'm straight to the mic With a hard-earned grin Same old outlaw With a newer skin I spit my truth Then I swing back low Still got that itch Still gotta go [Chorus] Too late now Too late now I worked my whole life Now I can't slow down Too late now Too late now I meant to go home But the bills won't bow [Outro] Yeah, I waited too long Now I wear this crown Too late now I'm still clockin' down
