All of these men
With their beards and their hats
Singing about love that I never had
They're travelling in vans
With their worn down guitars
Playing their shows like humble rockstars

Denim jackets and Red Wing boots
Writing music in a cabin in the woods
Denim jackets and Red Wing boots
These are the heroes of my childhood

All of these songs
With creaking wooden floors
Rambling of suitcases and the outdoors
With its melodies pure
And its wonderous words
Painting a picture of their life in verse

Denim jackets and Red Wing boots
With their gravely voices and a cabin in the woods
Denim jackets and Red Wing boots
These are the heroes of my childhood

And all of these men, they wrote these songs
About living here and then, never doing wrongs

Denim jackets and Red Wing boots
With their gravely voices and a cabin in the woods
Denim jackets and Red Wing boots
These are the heroes of my childhood
