Some people just can`t walk the line.
Like the wind they are restless all the time.
Searchin` for that elusive peace of mind:
Some people just can`t walk the line.
He`s out on the highway with his thumb in the wind,
A pint of Old Crow on his hip.
Unfiltered Camels rolled up in his sleeve,
Last night`s fight on his lip.
Some people just can`t walk the line.
Like the wind they are restless all the time.
Searchin` for that elusive peace of mind:
Some people just can`t walk the line.
Honky-tonks and bus stops and cheap old motel rooms,
Painted the lonesome in his eyes.
Tonight he`ll be sleepin` wherever he lands,
When the Old Crow drops him from the sky.
Some people just can`t walk the line.
Like the wind they are restless all the time.
Searchin` for that elusive peace of mind:
Some people just can`t walk the line.
Tomorrow at daybreak he`ll be up and gone,
Over the Mexican line.
A girl named Juanita is waiting for him,
To show him one helluva time.
Some people just can`t walk the line.
Like the wind they are restless all the time.
Searchin` for that elusive peace of mind:
Some people just can`t walk the line.
