Bob Dylan
Walkin’ Down the Line (Demo, 1963)
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
Walkin' down the line
And I’m walkin' down the line
My feet’ll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind
[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 1]
I got a heavy headed gal
I got a heavy headed gal
I got a heavy headed gal
She ain’t a-feelin’ well
When she’s better only time will tell
[Chorus]
Well Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
I’m walkin' down the line
And I’m walkin' down the line
My feet’ll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind
[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 2]
My money comes and goes
My money comes and goes
My money comes and goes
And rolls and throws and rolls and flows
Through the holes in the pockets in my clothes
[Chorus]
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
I’m walkin' down the line
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
My feet’ll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind
[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
I’m walkin' down the line
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
My feet’ll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind
[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 4]
I got my walkin' shoes
I got my walkin' shoes
I got my walkin' shoes
And I ain’t a-gonna lose
What else can a poor boy do
[Chorus]
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
Lord, I’m walkin' down the line
My feet’ll be a-flyin'
To tell about my troubled mind
