Lyrics End of the Line - The Allman Brothers Band

End of the Line

And now the gravity of trouble
Was more than I could bear
At times my luck was so bad
I had to fold my hands
Almost lost my soul
Rarely I could find my head
Wake up early in the morning
Feeling nearly dead
I was never afraid of danger
Took trouble on the chin
Mountains I have climbed
That have killed a thousand men
I spent most of my lifetime downtown
Sleepin' behind the wheel
Never needed anybody
I was king of the hill
Ooh, when I think about the old days
Ooh, it sends chills up and down my spine
Yeah, life ain’t what it seems
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Guess I opened my eyes
In the nick of time
'Cause it sure felt like
The end of the line
No matter how hard I run
I just can’t get away
I try to do my best
But the Devil gets in my way
Spent most of my lifetime downtown
Sleepin' behind the wheel
Till it all came down
To kill or be killed
Ooh, when I think about the old days
Ooh, it sends chills up and down my spine
Yeah, life ain’t what it seems
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Guess I opened my eyes
In the nick of time
'Cause it sure felt like
The end of the line
Just like the end of line
