Both Sides of the Line

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, another day's gone by It dawned so long ago And the memories keep flying high And the mornings go so slow [Refrain] 'Cause I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Verse 2] And I'm five kinds of senseless My heart is beating slow Hey, I got struck by lightning And I was sad to see it go [Refrain] 'Cause I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Refrain] I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Verse 3] Well, I'm sittin' at the head Stealing my own show And the plates are up on sticks And I'm spinning tales of woe [Refrain] 'Cause I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Verse 4] And there once was an answer But now I don't care to know In the service of the question I just had to see it go [Refrain] 'Cause I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Refrain] Yeah, I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Verse 5] I'm easy in the ether Swinging to and fro Lighter than a feather With a mountain range in tow [Refrain] 'Cause I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind [Verse 6] And the fruits of my own labor There's a seed I'll never sow Yeah, they cut down my pride But I was glad to see it go [Refrain] 'Cause I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit and sweet on the rind I'm on both sides of the line Bitter on the fruit [Outro] Sweet on the rind
