Boots Like Emmy Lou's Lyrics - Janis Ian

if i had boots like emmy lou's 

i'd be a country star 

with 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 'til 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 sing 

play fiddle on one string 

if i had boots like emmy lou's 

i'd never need a ring 

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 cannot 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
