|
I'm just trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
I don't do what I want to |
|
But I want to all the time |
|
Even with my best foot forward |
|
That leaves one left behind |
|
Trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
When I was young I was a stick just scratching the dust |
|
Trying to make a mark that would last |
|
But the wind's gonna blow and the kid's gonna grow |
|
And that line's gonna fade so fast |
|
Now I'm stubborn on a mission, trying to do it different |
|
But honestly I know |
|
I'm just trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
I don't do what I want to |
|
But I want to all the time |
|
Even with my best foot forward |
|
That leaves one left behind |
|
Trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
Crooked heart of mine |
|
It ain't broke but it bleeds and it's starting to rust |
|
Like my hand-me-down cross all covered with dust |
|
I know that it works 'cause at the end of the day |
|
I've got my knees on the floor and I'm starting to pray |
|
I've got a rattle in the dash, got a little stash |
|
Of things I can't quite change |
|
I'm just trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
I don't do what I want to |
|
But I want to all the time |
|
Even with my best foot forward |
|
That leaves one left behind |
|
Trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
Crooked heart of mine |
|
I try to stand on a rock but I always roll |
|
I got a soul full of slant that I can't let go |
|
With a little more time I hope you see |
|
A little more light than dark in me |
|
A little more light than dark in me |
|
I'm just trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
I don't do what I want to |
|
But I want to all the time |
|
Even with my best foot forward |
|
That leaves one left behind |
|
Trying to walk a straight line |
|
With a crooked heart inside |
|
Crooked heart of mine |
|
Crooked heart, my crooked heart now |
|
Crooked heart of mine |
|
Crooked heart of mine |
