I was there when the ship went down
But they grabbed before I could drown
They scooped my up from the shallows
Took me straight to the gallows
Now my fate is in the ground
So I lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Well I drank like I was underwater
And I found myself gasping for air
Put the rope around my neck
I thought I'd end this wreck
But then decided that it wasn't fair
So I lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
When they find out
What I had done
They said I have
Till I see the sun
Well the moral of the story
Is you'll never find glory
Long as they're the ones
Holding the gun
So I lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
So I lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
Lay low
Walked the line
Because they say so
I'll do my time
Without a halo
When they bury me
