lyrics

He was just a little boy when they taught him who he wasn’t
Filled his head with endless should’s & oughta’s by the dozen
Standing ‘neath that family tree just trying to measure up
Knowing way down deep that he would never be enough

He’s got himself some big ole boots to fill
He’s got himself some big ole boots to fill

He learned to apologize to always take the fall
But over time that tricked his mind now everything’s his fault
Grew up strong and tall but guilt can drive him to his knees
Look into those eyes you’ll see that little boy still dying just to please

He’s got himself some big ole boots to fill
He’s got himself some big ole boots to fill

And I’d throw you a rope if I thought you would take it
But I’m holding out hope and I’m wishing you peace
You know we’re all broke, yeah we all need some saving
Maybe all that I’m saying is let the little boy be
Let the little boy be
Let that boy be

He’s got himself some big ole boots to fill
He’d drowning those big ole boots but still
He’s got himself some big ole boots to fill
