Further Down The Line

Well baby you know it's been a long time comin'

The fights were hard and the nights got long

And I just got so sick of running

From all the things you said were wrong

So you packed up and took off westbound

You said Seattle called you by name

And now it's cold and wet in your new town

But once you cross the Red it's a bright fine day

Cause it's not raining down in Corpus

Don't you know those dark clouds can't find me

So I'll take my bottle and lime

Move a little further on down the line

And think about how good life can be

It's funny how the water can open your eyes

Make you see your life in a whole new light

And I can almost see that frame in the Western skies

And the southern wind it makes me feel alright

Cause it's not rainin' in Corpus

Don't you know those dark clouds can't find me

So I'll take my bottle and lime

Move a little further on down the line

And think about how good life can be

I hope the salvation you've been chasing

Lives up in some Pacific Bay

And when you think about what you're missing

You can picture me sailing away

Cause it's not raining on the islands

Don't you know those dark clouds can't find me

So I'll take my bottle and lime

Move a little further down the line

And think about how good life can be
