Verse 1 There’s a gravel road running outta this town Where the streetlights fade and the sun goes down Got a tank half full and a heart wide open Couple old scars and a promise unspoken Mama said, “Boy don’t fear the unknown” Daddy said, “Make your own way home” So I packed up everything I own And chased that line where the sky turns gold Pre-Chorus Yeah I’ve been lost, yeah I’ve been broke But every mile just fuels the hope Chorus I got dust on my boots, fire in my soul A head full of dreams I ain’t letting go From a small-town map to the great unknown I’m betting it all on a chance I’ll own Yeah the road gets rough but I won’t slow down Hear that freedom ringing in the engine sound If I fall, I’ll rise, yeah that’s what I know With dust on my boots, fire in my soul Verse 2 Met a girl with stars in her eyes one night Said she saw something in me burning bright We danced in the glow of a neon sign Said “Don’t you quit on a dream like mine” But love ain’t easy when you’re chasing wind Sometimes goodbye is where you begin Still hear her voice when the night rolls in Saying “Go on, boy, go all in” Pre-Chorus Yeah it hurts like hell, yeah it takes its toll But a dream like this won’t leave you alone Chorus I got dust on my boots, fire in my soul A head full of dreams I ain’t letting go From a small-town map to the great unknown I’m betting it all on a chance I’ll own Yeah the road gets rough but I won’t slow down Hear that freedom ringing in the engine sound If I fall, I’ll rise, yeah that’s what I know With dust on my boots, fire in my soul Bridge Every wrong turn, every closed door Led me right where I’m standing for Every heartbreak, every long night Lit a spark I couldn’t fight You can doubt me, you can say I won’t But I’ll die trying before I don’t Final Chorus (Big Lift) Yeah I got dust on my boots, fire in my soul A lifetime of dreams I’m chasing down this road From a prayer in the dark to a story told I’m writing my name in the lines I hold Yeah the road gets rough but I won’t slow down Hear that freedom screaming in the engine sound If I fall, I’ll rise, yeah that’s what I know With dust on my boots… fire in my soul Outro Yeah that highway knows my name And I’ll ride it till I make my way
