Both Sides Of The Line

Wanda Jackson · Greatest Hits [1990]

(Marian Francis)



You just gotta walk on both sides of the line

You've thrilled at the thought of each stranger's arms you find

Everything that's yours to hold just can't satisfy your mind

'Cause you just gotta walk on both sides of the line.



If you had me in a mansion filled with gold

If I layed at your feet my heart and my soul

You'd still crave the grapes on your next door neighbor's vine

'Cause you just gotta walk on both sides of the line



--- Instrumental ---



You just gotta walk on both sides of the line

You've thrilled at the thought of each stranger's arms you find

Everything that's yours to hold just can't satisfy your mind

'Cause you just gotta walk on both sides of the line.



'Cause you just gotta walk on both sides of the line...
