Shoes Get Filled With Sand Lyrics by Dalton Moon

2019

(Verse 1)
I woke up last night and I was gone
My girl didn’t follow along
She didn’t want to break the news
But we sang to two different songs
No it’s not her, no it’s not me
It’s just the way it seemed to go
She knew i’d try to cover up so well
But she knew I knew she’d know
My mother went to apologize
But it work as she planned
The locusts have no king yet go
They forth all of them by bands, as I stand
My shoes get filled with sand
(Verse 2)
I drove over to my brothers house
After ten years of being away
We talked and ate for an hour or two
I drove home at the end of the day
After getting home in the city of love
Brotherly love, i mean
I fell asleep in my own bed for once
I guess I blew off too much steam
Though I wonder if she misses me
For I miss the touch of her hand
I wonder around for days on end
Lord knows, one day i’ll stand in the promised land
My shoes get filled with sand
(Verse 3)
My back was burning from the yellow rays
After days of working in the sun
My mind was lost in an endless daze
Looks like Johnny missed out on the fun
After taking a book from the top of the shelf
Flipping through the pages
The lines “Go on, boy, help your brother”
Helped me get through a lot of stages
And though I stole most of others words
I will make it the best I can
You can’t stop me from saying my words
My preaching can’t be banned, it’s the law of the land
My shoes get filled with sand
(Verse 4)
Well well I know that my day is over
No food or water for me
Big Boss Man’s driving to my house
Sit down would you like some tea
I put on my boots and I tied them tight
For I know i’m traveling way out west
Stopped by a cabin made of earth and woods
Please man, let me get some rest
He put on a fire, fixed me a drink
Asked “how are you doing, man”
“You look real tired, real beat up, you look like you need a hand, I’m a mountain man”
My shoes get filled with sand
(Verse 5)
I came back home after forty days
Of sleeping in the desert dunes
I walked the roads all the way back home
And I wrote me a little tune
It goes “My my my, well well well, I guess you’ve been traveling now”
It goes “My my my and well well well, It leaves me to wondering how
“You know I’m alright yessir i’m fine, just had to find my way up land”
“You know i’m alright yessir i’m fine, lord knows one day i’ll stand, in the promised land”
“My shoes get filled with sand”
