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 tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line

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

Because you're mine, I walk the line

I'm gonna walk it, baby
What'd I say?

As sure as night is dark and baby, day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known, proves that it's all right
Because you're mine, I walk the line

Yeah, baby

You've got a way to keep me baby, on your side
You give me 'cause for love that even I can't hide
Oh, you know I didn't try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line

Because you're mine, I walk the line
Because you're mine, I walk the line

Yeah, baby
I'm gonna walk it, darlin'
