Down The Line

  1991

How long you gonna make me sit on that sofa

You must think I got a lot of time

But I aint gonna sit round here to hear that phone ring in my ear

So baby you just move on down the line

 

You know those love letters really had me going

They’d get me so hot I could almost fry

I aint got no time to play those games, a good cold shower kills the flames

So baby you just move on down the line

 

I bought you a one way ticket

And darlin you are running out of time

Gonna board you on a train to my heartache

Unless you make up your mind to let me ride

 

Well you know that you really had me going

But the waiting only makes me sit and pine

So rather than sit back and complain Im gonna make you board that train

Kiss you off with my love and watch you ride

 

You know there’re lot of fishes in the ocean

And boy my hook’s a baited line

So if you aint gonna tug on me, remove that hook and set me free

And baby you just move on down the line

 

I think I hear a train whistle blowing

And darlin you are running out of time

Gonna board you on that train out of my life

Unless you make up your mind to let me ride

 

Now you know that you really had me going

But the waiting only makes my poor heart cry

So rather than sit back and complain Im gonna board you on that train

Kiss you off with my love and watch you ride

     Stupid fun! That is what this song was. I was performing in a country band in Japan. I needed a county song. Voila!! This is a hokey, silly, fast paced, old-school country song! Stupid, but catchy and fun! Seriously, it is almost embarassing to perform.
