You knew when you first met me

I was a good time kind of guy

You wanted me to change my ways

I told you that I'd try

Well I've gone from wild and crazy

to takin' out the trash

Girl it's time to comprimise

and give me a weekend pass

Chorus:

Well I can walk the line if it ain't too straight

I'll come home but it might be late

I ain't no devil but lord I ain't no saint

Let out the rope, girl give me some slack

this ol' dog will always come back

You gotta bend the rules and give me a break

Well I can walk the line if ain't too straight

Well I'll love you forever

If I can have a few days off

I'll buy you anything you want

If I can bear the cost

If I ain't gottta punch no clock, girl,

you can be the boss

I'll be your mister perfect

If you can overlook my flaws

Chorus

Yeah let out the rope girl,

give me some slack this ol' dog will always come back

Yeah I can walk the line if it ain't too straight.
