I Walk the Line Page #6

you got yourself a manhunt.

My bet says that if I could find

my whiskey, you could find your man.

Alma!

Alma?

Alma!

Alma, you in here?

Alma!

Alma!

Beside a singin'

mountain stream

Where the willow grew

Where the silver leaf

of maple

Sparkled in the mornin' dew

I braided twigs of willow

Made a string

of buckeyed beads

But flesh and blood needs

flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

Flesh and blood

needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

I leaned against

the bark of birch

And I breathed

the honey dew

I saw a northbound

flock of geese

Against the sky of baby blue

Beside the lily pads

I carved a whistle

from a reed

Mother Nature's quite a lady

But you're the one I need

Flesh and blood

needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

A cardinal sang

just for me

And I thanked him

for the song

Then the sun went

slowly down the west

And I had to move along

These were some

of the things

On which my mind

and spirit feed

But flesh and blood

needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

Flesh and blood

needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

So when the day was ended

I was still not satisfied

I knew everything I touched

Would wither and would die

And love is all

that will remain

And grow from all these seed

Mother Nature's quite a lady

And you're the one I need

Yes, flesh and blood

needs flesh and blood

And you're the one I need

Let her be.

It's all over, Sheriff.

The arrangement's done now.

Alma.

It's all right now.

We can do what we like now.

- Alma!

- Don't you see it's over, Sheriff?

Henry!

You're comin' with me.

No. I can't come with you.

Buddy!

- Tawes!

- Henry!

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 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
