Take A Long Line |
He was selling postcards from a paper stand |
a whiskey bottle in his withered hand |
he put a finger on a photo from an old magazine |
and saw himself in the shadow of his dream |
They found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown |
told him his feet stank and took him downtown |
called him agitator, spy and thief |
shut him up in solitary third degree |
take a long line x3 |
reel him in |
He tried to appeal to the king of might |
he said «I'm just excercising my sacred right» |
the king he said «You ain’t got no rights |
you’re a madman, a traitor, get outta my sight» |
take along line x3 |
reel him in |
(guitar solo) |
They found him with his head inside a tin-pot crown |
told him his feet stank and took him downtown |
called him agitator, spy and thief |
shut him up in solitary third degree |
They put him aboard a well wound whirlwind |
pulled out his teeth and rold him to grin |
he gave them a smile, pulled out a bottle of wine |
and said «I never existed, you’ve been wasting your time» |
take a long line x3 |
reel him in |
take a long line x3 |
reel him in |
take a long line |
take a long line |
take a long long long long line |
reel him in |
