Walk a Straight Line

Livin' on the road Another town another show Between the whiskey and the women And the gypsy and the livin' Under neon light

You walked in A cotton dress talking words in red Got me looking in the mirror Thinking I can do it better Now I wanna get right

I wanna walk a straight line to your front door runnin' Home every night with some Good Lord company Little house and some cows and some kids and a little space

I wanna walk a straight line through the hills with the Good Lord And when I'm ready knockin' heavy on your daddy's door Ask for your hand, buy a band and never walk away

I wanna walk a straight line I wanna walk a straight line, yeah

I've heard plenty say Don't let it all go to waste You only get one chance of livin' So you might as well be sinnin' In your young man days

But it's an empty road And I've found myself a desert rose And I'll lose it if I let it And I know I would regret it So I'm gonna make it known

I wanna walk a straight line to your front door runnin' Home every night with some Good Lord company Little house and some cows and some kids and a little space

I wanna walk a straight line through the hills with the Good Lord And when I'm ready knockin' heavy on your daddy's door Ask for your hand, buy a band and never walk away

I wanna walk a straight line I wanna walk a straight line, yeah

Yeah I know she's the one cause she loves Him more than me And if only I could hold her in my arms maybe she would see

I'm gonna walk a straight line to your front door runnin' Home every night with some Good Lord company Little house and some cows and some kids and a little faith

I'm gonna walk a straight line through the hills with the Good Lord And now I'm ready knockin' heavy on your daddy's door Ask for your hand, buy a band and never walk away

I'm gonna walk a straight line I'm gonna walk a straight line, yeah I'm gonna walk a straight line I'm gonna walk a straight line, yeah
