Layin' my life on the line, that's what I do all the time
Well I find myself each night, facing a white light
Layin' my life on the line
Driving the road here tonight, my thoughts were of Susan and I
Now her love sustained me, the road almost claimed me
They're laying my life out in a line
Traveling is my way of life, and so it gets crazy sometimes
Well it takes me places, where I see the faces
Of people I touched with my lines
Bridge:
Sometimes it all feels so right, sometimes I just feel far from home
Sometimes I wonder, am I just stumbling through here
Have been on this road for too long
But here I am out here tonight, playing the songs that I like
Cause the magic is bringing, each song you're singing
Your whole life's laid out in lines
Well I'm laying my life on the line
Jerry Jeff Walker, nato Ronald Clyde Crosby, è stato un cantautore e chitarrista statunitense di grande successo negli anni '70. Conosciuto anche come Gypsy Songman, ha lasciato un'impronta significativa nel panorama musicale country, country rock, folk rock e rock and roll.
