Tom Cochrane - Walking The Fine Line lyrics

Lost my job in the darkest place, Going to get back up

Clean my face, And take that longest ride

I talked to the man with the busy pen

Tired of being on the losing end

I'm going to walk with pride

Walking that fine line

Between the sun and the sky

The smoke and the steel you and me

Taking the longest ride, Crack the sky

But get out alive this time

Me and my friend we been up all night

Had a drink on John, had a drink on the mine

Now we'll leave this ghost town

She said, "Show me a good man,

"I'll show you a slave,

Show me a free man,

I'll show you the brave.

Hold your head up high"

Never had the guts to turn it around

Never had the guts to tear it down

Now we got the chance to

We're walking that fine line

Between a free man and a slave

The wind and the sea you and me

Taking that longest ride

Crack the sky

Get out alive this time

Walking that fine line.....
