Along The Wire lyrics

 
Song Details
Artist(s)The Wild Northern
Album(s)The Whiskey Season

Written by Roland Eckstein, Performed by The Wild Northern

Sky's on fire in the New Jersey night
Watchin the waves a young girl smiles, says 'aint it good to be alive
With a cold beer in hand and you by my side
Let's rock this satellite

Maria's sittin by the lighthouse thinkin
Drinkin, something's on her mind
She says, "Honey, we may be too busy livin I feel like I'm already dyin."

And as she slips into the water
In that black dress that you bought her
Dancin in the darkness with the hard, cold moon
There is something magnetic with me and you

Preacher did his preachin on Sunday morning
He'd say to me before he'd start
"Son, live life with a song in your head
and live life with a smile in your heart."

And as she slips into the water
In that black dress that you bought her
Dancin in the darkness with the hard, cold moon
There is something magnetic with me and you

What do you say you and I go out tonight,
Go and get buried by the railroad tracks?
This one goes out to all the broken lights
To all the souls that 'aint comin back

And if by chance you set my heart on fire
Don't call the boys in blue to put it out
I'll walk with you out along the wire
Honey, I'll show you what lovin's all about
