Boots Like Emmy Lou's

[ti:Boots Like Emmy Lou's] [ar:Janis Ian] [al:God & The FBI] [offset:0] Boots Like Emmy Lou's - Janis Ian If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd be a diggle star Rhinestones on my bvd's And a hummingbird guitar I'd buy myself the biggest bus That ever graced the track With a loveseat for the two of us And a swimming pool in back If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd wear my hair like Loretta used to do I'd sing like patsy cline And kitty wells combined If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd never need a shine If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd be so very rich I'd hire a dog to scratch me Every time I got an itch I'd buy a thousand cadillacs With longhorns on the front Drive one till the ashtray filled Then haul it to the dump If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd wear my hair like Loretta used to do I'd sing like patsy cline And kitty wells combined If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd never need a shine I'd buy my clothes from nudie Have fingernails like Tammy I'd tease my hair like Dolly And measure ten feet tall I'd teach those boots to talk Play that string in New York If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd never need to walk If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd die without a care Fly straight up to heaven's gate And push my way in there And when saint peter asked me What I'd done to be so bold I'd point down to my boots and say They're recently resoled So fit me for a robe wings and halo too But I can't stay if you take away My boots like Emmy Lou's If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd wear my hair like Loretta used to do I'd sing like patsy cline And kitty wells combined If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd never need a shine If I had boots like Emmy Lou's I'd never need a shine
