White Line
Words and music by Willie P. Bennett 1975
Cold and lonely on the road
Lord, I wish I had a hole to climb in
Summer's warm rain sure ain't comin'
So it seems to me I'm thumbin' once again
Standing by a midnight highway
Excuse me sir, are you goin' my way?
On and on, the endless white line goes
Tired and hungry once again
This sleet keeps comin' down on top of me
All the time I keep wishing I had me
A warm coat and hat so I could see
Standing by a midnight highway
Excuse me sir, are you goin' my way?
On and on, the endless white line goes
You know that could have been me you're listening to on the radio
I could be warm inside of someplace
Instead of standing here in the snow
Sunny days are what I pray for
Golden sunshine on my skin
Head on south to the Teton Mountains
Lord it seems to me I'm thumbin' once again
Standing by a midnight highway
Excuse me sir, are you goin' my way?
On and on, the endless white line goes
You know that could have been me you're listening to on the radio
I could be warm inside of someplace
Instead of standing here in the snow
On and on, the endless white line goes
On and on, the endless white line goes
On and on, the endless white line goes
