I WALK THE LINE
Johnny Cash - 1956


I keep a close watch on this heart of mine, 
I keep my eyes wide open all the time, 
I keep the ends out for the ties that bind, 
Because you´re mine, I walk the line. 

I find it very, very easy to be true, 
I find myself alone when each day is through, 
Yes, I´ll admit that I´m a fool for you, 
Because you´re mine, I walk the line. 

As sure as night is dark and day is light, 
I keep you on my mind both day and night, 
And happiness proves that I´m right, 
Because you´re mine I walk the line. 

You´ve got a way to keep me on your side, 
You give me cause for love that I can´t hide, 
For you I know I´d even try to turn the tide, 
Because you´re mine I walk the line.
