V1

Last night the bourbon looked me square in the eye

So I kept on drinking until the whole damn thing was dry

Seems like all I do these days since she's been gone

Yeah my life sounds like a old sad country song

V2

I aint been to Sunday service since I was sixteen

And I too close to Jesus, but I'm close to Jim Beam

Me and religion I guess we're hit or miss

But I know I aint getting to heaven living like this

(Chorus)

The line that I walk has always been thin

On the straight and narrow until I'm lost again

I better change the way I live before I cave in

The line that I walk has always been thin

V3

Christians, Drunks, and Sinners well I've met them all

From Churches to Honky Tonks to ole Smokey pool hauls

I guess I'm somewhere in the middle of all of them

Cause the line I walk has always been thin

(Chorus)

The line that I walk has always been thin

On the straight and narrow until I'm lost again

I better change the way I live before I cave in

The line that I walk has always been thin

(Chorus)

The line that I walk has always been thin

On the straight and narrow until I'm lost again

I better change all my ways before I cave in

The line that I walk has always been thin

Yeah this line that I walk has always been thin
