|
Lost my job in the darkest place, Going to get back up
|
Clean my face, And take that longest ride
|
I talked to the man with the busy pen
|
Tired of being on the losing end
|
I'm going to walk with pride
|
|
Walking that fine line
|
Between the sun and the sky
|
The smoke and the steel you and me
|
Taking the longest ride, Crack the sky
|
But get out alive this time
|
|
Me and my friend we been up all night
|
Had a drink on John, had a drink on the mine
|
Now we'll leave this ghost town
|
She said, "Show me a good man,
|
"I'll show you a slave,
|
Show me a free man,
|
I'll show you the brave.
|
Hold your head up high"
|
|
Never had the guts to turn it around
|
Never had the guts to tear it down
|
Now we got the chance to
|
|
We're walking that fine line
|
Between a free man and a slave
|
The wind and the sea you and me
|
Taking that longest ride
|
Crack the sky
|
Get out alive this time
|
|
Walking that fine line.....
