[Verse 1] You left your coat on the chair Still smells like rain and lies I got your key on the ring But it don’t open these eyes My boots keep time on the floor Like they know what pain can do I grin and I shake my head But that hurt runs clean through [Pre-Chorus] It’s a deep blue heel Pressing on my chest I keep moving, baby Lord, I do my best It’s a deep blue heel And it won’t let go You can hide it in your smile But I know, I know [Chorus] Deep blue heel Keeps me moving, keeps me real Deep blue heel Cuts me, then it makes me feel I’m hurt, I’m hurt But I’m still on my feet Deep blue heel Got me dancing with the grief (deep blue heel) [Verse 2] Saw your name on the bill At the diner down on Fifth I ordered fries and black coffee Took a slow and bitter sip That jukebox played my bad luck And the whole room laughed along I laughed too, just a little Then I sang my pain a song [Pre-Chorus] It’s a deep blue heel Pressing on my chest I keep moving, baby Lord, I do my best It’s a deep blue heel And it won’t let go You can hide it in your smile But I know, I know [Chorus] Deep blue heel Keeps me moving, keeps me real Deep blue heel Cuts me, then it makes me feel I’m hurt, I’m hurt But I’m still on my feet Deep blue heel Got me dancing with the grief (deep blue heel) [Bridge] One more round, I’ll tell the truth I miss your touch, I miss my youth If love’s a fire, mine burned through Still got sparks when I think of you So I stomp that sorrow into sound Let the whole poor world spin round [Chorus] Deep blue heel Keeps me moving, keeps me real Deep blue heel Cuts me, then it makes me feel I’m hurt, I’m hurt But I’m still on my feet Deep blue heel Got me dancing with the grief (deep blue heel)
