I remember saturdays, way back in 99
shopping with my momma always said
we're spending all daddy's dimes
we'd go running through department stores
grabbing all that we could
I remember saturdays, just like a little boy should
Saw a pair of boots there on the shelf,
man i wish they were mine
they were brown and leather all around
nothing but a simple design
I said momma can i have these boots,
i'd wear them everyday
i begged and pleaded on the ground,
heres what my momma did say
she said son the price is just too high
i grabbed pennies from my pocket and said i'd pay this time
then she turned to me, tears filled her eyes
i put the pennies in her hand and said these boots, they will be mine.
