SCOTT GATES & SALTY SUITES: Listen & See

Dusty Boots Corral

lyrics by Andrew Gates, music by Scott Gates

KAT and Crazy John Moser are friends who own the real Dusty Boots Corral in Joshua Tree, CA. KAT is Scott's very first fan, and the first site designer.

The sun rides high in the western sky, and the shadows melt away

Near the canyon home where the Indians roamed

In that far and distant day

Somehow it just seems to me, the wind shispers it's history

And everything just fits for me

At the Dusty Boots Corral

Miners searchin' the hills for gold once trod upon this ground

Where now you stand just close your eyes and listen to the sound

They coyotes howl and the wind blows free, the desert weaves it's mystery

And everything just fits for me at the Dusty Boots Corral

A homestead here and a cabin there leaves their bones among the land

And now a brand new horse corral sits down upon the sand

Horses run among the Joshua trees, the sound of life fills the evening breeze

And everything just fits for me at the Dusty Boots Corral

KAT and John have built a home where the horses run and the coyotes roam

Everything just fits for me at the Dusty Boots Corral

Yeah, everything just fits for me at the Dusty Boots Corral
