"Walk A Straight Line" lyrics

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
