The Dead Daisies - Take A Long Line Lyrics

The Dead Daisies Lyrics

"Take A Long Line"

He was selling post cards from a paper stand
The whiskey bottle in his withered hand
Put his finger on a photo from an old magazine
Saw himself in the shadow of his dream
Found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown
Told him his feet stank and took him downtown
Called him agitator, spy and thief
Shut him up in solitary third degree

Take a long line
Take a long line
Take a long line
Reel him in

He tried to appeal to the King of might
Said I'm just exercising my sacred right
The King he said You ain't got no rights
You're a madman, traitor, get out of my sight

Take a long line
Take a long line
Take a long line
Reel him in

They found him with his head inside a tin pot crown
Told him his feet stank and took him downtown
Called him agitator, spy, and thief
Shut him up in solitary third degree
Then they put him aboard a well wound whirlwind
Pulled out his teeth and they told him to grin
He gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wine
And said, I never existed, you've been wasting your time

Take a long line
Take a long line
Take a long line
Reel him in

Take a long line
Take a long line
Take a long line
Reel him in, ooh

Take a long line
Take a long line
Take a long, long, long, long, line
Reel him in
