Boots by the Shed
Style: Funk strut

[Verse 1]
You track mud clean across the floor
and nobody minds it anymore
the tomatoes lean toward where you've been
that's the kind of warmth you bring

[Pre-chorus]
So light the candles, pour the wine
we've been counting down the time
for the one line that says it right

[Chorus]
Iris, put your boots up on the step
Iris, you're the best thing that we've kept
another year has ripened, gold and true
every single one was better next to you

[Verse 2]
You leave the gate hooked, never shut
like you knew we'd all show up
the vines don't care who gets the praise
but we do, and we're raising ours today

[Chorus]
Iris, put your boots up on the step
Iris, you're the best thing that we've kept
another year has ripened, gold and true
every single one was better next to you

[Bridge]
Here's to the dirt beneath your nails
to showing up when courage fails
we don't need the perfect scene
we just need you, exactly as you've been

[Chorus]
Iris, put your boots up on the step
Iris, you're the best thing that we've kept
another year has ripened, gold and true
every single one was better next to you

[Outro]
Leave the boots out by the door
we'll need them again once more
