One Sure Honest Line - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
I made a living writing lover's dream words, I found the notes to hang them on I fround a way to play with the meaning of things And I came up with a couple good songs. And so I oughta have an easy answer, I oughta have some pretty things to say, But I haven't found the combination That'll make you change your mind and wanna stay. So I wish I had one sure honest line to say over and over again Sung in tune and time to a melody pure One clear everpresent pulse in the pocket And I'm on the radio so you'll know that I am yours Listen to the laughter of the children She scratched on the back of a bill As we climbed past the road to the schoolhouse On the burnt crust browning pan hill To where they don't take sad for an answer, A place at the corner of your heart, Where music meets with memories, So you can recognize the feeling from the start How I wish I had one sure honest line to say over and over again Sung in tune and time to a melody pure One clear everpresent pulse in the pocket? I'm on the radio so you'll know that I am yours They'll put us on the radio so you'll know that I am yours
