Subject: Lyr Add: WALKING DOWN THE LINE
This is how it is listed at Sorcha's link, but the first verse isn't quite right I think... I'll put how I recall it, in parentheses, in the text.

Didn't Arlo Guthrie record this ages ago? "I'm-a-walkin' down the-line.... I'm-a-walkin' down the lie-eye-eye-ine...

Sorch, you e-mail, OK?

WALKING DOWN THE LINE

CHO:
Well I'm walking down the line
I'm walking down the line
I'm walking down the line
My feet about my trouble mind
(Tell you' bout my troubled mind)

I've got a heavy headed gal
I've got a heavy headed gal
I've got a heavy headed gal
She ain't a feeling well
When she's better only time well tell

My money comes and goes
My money comes and goes
My money comes and goes
And rolls and flows and rolls and flows
Through the holes in the pockets of my clothes

I see the morning light
I see the morning light
I see the morning light
Well it's not because I'm an early riser
I didn't go to sleep last night
