Well, I'm walkin' down the line,

I'm walkin' down the line

An' I'm walkin' down the line.

My feet'll be a-flyin'

To tell about my troubled mind.



I got a heavy-headed gal

I got a heavy-headed gal

I got a heavy-headed gal

She ain't feelin' well

When she's better only time will tell



Well, I'm walkin' down the line,

I'm walkin' down the line

An' I'm walkin' down the line.

My feet'll be a-flyin'

To tell about my troubled mind.



My money comes and goes

My money comes and goes

My money comes and goes

And rolls and flows and rolls and flows

Through the holes in the pockets in my clothes



Well, I'm walkin' down the line,

I'm walkin' down the line

An' I'm walkin' down the line.

My feet'll be a-flyin'

To tell about my troubled mind.



I see the morning light

I see the morning light

Well it's not because

I'm an early riser

I didn't go to sleep last night



Well, I'm walkin' down the line,

I'm walkin' down the line

An' I'm walkin' down the line.

My feet'll be a-flyin'

To tell about my troubled mind.



I got my walkin' shoes

I got my walkin' shoes

I got my walkin' shoes

An' I ain't a-gonna lose

I believe I got the walkin' blues



Well, I'm walkin' down the line,

I'm walkin' down the line

An' I'm walkin' down the line.

My feet'll be a-flyin'

To tell about my troubled mind.
