All Down The Line (Live At The El Mocambo 1977) Lyrics

Oh, what's that?

Yeah, hear the diesel drumming
All down the line
Yeah, hear the motor humming
All down the line, yeah
Yeah, watch the women working
All down the line
Yeah, hear the railmen lying, sighing, yeah
All down the line

I've been watching all the trouble, yeah
I'm gonna keep the motor running, yeah
Yeah, you can't say yes and you can't say no
I'll be right there when the whistle blows
I need somebody to help me out right now

Yeah, hear the women sighing
Singing, "Shy, lie, lay"
Yeah, watch the tailmen working, workin', yeah
All down the line

I've been watching all the trouble, yeah
I'm gonna keep the motor running, yeah
I need a shot of salvation once in a while
And I'm gonna blow away in a thousand miles
So

Yeah, I've been watching all the trouble, yeah
I'm gonna keep the motor running, yeah
Well, you can't say yes and you can't say no
I'll be right there when the whistle blows
I need somebody by my side to help me out right now

Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Be my little honey for tonight

Yeah, that's where I'll be, that's where I'll go
I'll go right now when the whistle blows
That's where I'll be in the morning, that's where I'll go
I'm gonna be there when the whistle blows, tomorrow
