As a young girl, I didn’t feel I had much power, strength or control over my life.
the year this song came out, girls were still not allowed to wear pants to school. And even though i lived in a cold snowy winter area…still the dresses….
This song really made me feel empowered everytime I heard it!! ANd I am quite sure many women the world over felt the same…
And so, I dedicate this artwork to the songwriter Lee Hazlewood and song artist Nancy Sinatra, for helping all women who heard it feel more empowered over their own lifes!
It was released in February 1966 and hit #1 in the United States and United Kingdom Pop charts.
These Boots Are Made For Walking
Lyrics by Lee Hazlewood
You keep saying you got something for me
Something you call love but confess
You’ve been a’messin’ where you shouldn’t ‘ve been a’messin’
And now someone else is getting all your best
Well, these boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
You keep lyin’ when you oughta be truthin’
You keep losing when you oughta not bet
You keep samin’ when you oughta be a’changin’
What’s right is right but you ain’t been right yet
These boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
You keep playing where you shouldn’t be playing
And you keep thinking that you’ll never get burnt (HAH)
Well, I’ve just found me a brand new box of matches (YEAH)
And what he knows you ain’t had time to learn
These boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
Are you ready, boots?
Start walkin
