Gonna Walk That Line
Randy Travis's Journey: Walking the Line of Redemption
Lyrics
I never been too good at doing right
I have a history of struggling to do what is morally right.
Done mostly wrong most all my life
Throughout my life, I have mostly made wrong choices.
I never found a place to settle down
I haven't found a stable and settled place in life until now.
But baby, I do believe I found it now
Despite my past, I believe I have now found that stable place, possibly in a relationship.
I'm gonna walk that line, gonna tote that barge
Expressing commitment to hard work and responsibility.
Gonna lift that bale, gonna work real hard
Commitment to heavy labor and overcoming challenges.
Doin' anything that you want me to
Willingness to do anything for the person he cares about.
Baby, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Pledging to walk a path of commitment and responsibility for the loved one.
Ooh I'm gonna walk that line for you
Reiteration of the commitment to stay on the right path for the loved one.
Ooh I'm gonna walk that line for you
Emphasizing the determination to maintain commitment.
Do anything that you want me to
Willingness to do anything requested by the loved one.
Ooh I'm gonna walk that line for you
Reiteration of the commitment to stay on the right path for the loved one.
Well the straight and narrow it never was my path
Admitting that the conventional and righteous path was not his usual choice.
And everlasting love it never seemed to last
Acknowledging a history of relationships not lasting forever.
I used to be a Tomcat out on the prowl
Referring to a past of being carefree and seeking romantic adventures.
But baby, I'm just your puppy dog now
Despite the past, expressing a willingness to be loyal and committed now.
I'm gonna walk that line, gonna tote that barge
Reiteration of commitment to hard work and responsibility for the loved one.
Gonna lift that bale, gonna work real hard
Commitment to strenuous labor and overcoming challenges.
Doin' anything that you want me to
Willingness to do anything for the person he cares about.
Baby, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Pledging to walk a path of commitment and responsibility for the loved one.
Ooh, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Reiteration of the commitment to stay on the right path for the loved one.
Ooh, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Emphasizing the determination to maintain commitment.
Do anything that you want me to
Willingness to do anything requested by the loved one.
Ooh, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Reiteration of the commitment to stay on the right path for the loved one.
Ooh, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Emphasizing the determination to maintain commitment.
Ooh, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Reiteration of the commitment to stay on the right path for the loved one.
Do anything that you want me to
Willingness to do anything requested by the loved one.
Ooh, I'm gonna walk that line for you
Final reiteration of the commitment to stay on the right path for the loved one.
