Rodney Crowell;
|
I'm back on board that '49 Ford in 1956
|
Long before the sun came up way out in the sticks
|
The headlight showed a two rut roadway
|
Back up in the pines
|
First time I heard Johnny Cash
|
Sing I Walk The Line
|
|
I got my thrill behind the wheel upon my daddys lap
|
Grandpa rode co-pilot with a flashlight and a map
|
Cane pole out the window it was in the summertime
|
First time I heard Johnny Cash
|
Sing I Walk The Line
|
|
Johnny Cash;
|
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
|
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
|
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
|
Because you're mine, I Walk The Line
|
|
I never will forget that day,I know the time and place,
|
Sounded like the whole thing came right down from outer space,
|
I still can see those headlights and that dashboard in my mind,
|
The first time I heard Johnny Cash sing I walk the line.
|
|
I find it very very easy to be true,
|
I find myself alone when each day's through,
|
Yes I'll admit that I'm a fool for you,
|
Because you're mine, I walk the line
|
|
Rodney Crowell;
|
All these long years later it's still music to my ears
|
I swear it sounds as good right now as anything I hear
|
I've seen the Mona Lisa
|
I've heard Shakespear read real fine
|
Just like hearing Johnny Cash
|
Sing I Walk The Line
|
|
Johnny Cash;
|
As sure as night is dark and day is light
|
I keep you on my mind both day and night
|
And happiness I've know proves that it's right
|
Because you're mine, I Walk The Line
|
|
Because you're mine, I Walk The Line
|
