Letra de Across the line

(Cool Guitar Intro)

There´s so many reasons
A man will commit a crime
Frustration´s gnawin´ at him
Twisting up his mind

He´s tickin´ like a bomb
That may go off at any time

I´m not here to make excuses
I didn´t walk into it blind

It was plain old greed
Took something that wasn´t mine

It was the weakness for a woman
That made me step across the line

What made it so bad
Was that I had a woman of my own

And she never did wrong to me
Always did her best to make our home

From these cheatin´ seeds I planted
Some big-time grief has grown

There´s never been a man who´s lived a perfect life
I cut three hearts to pieces
Didn´t even use a knife
I didn´t have the common decency
To lay off my brother´s wife

(Saxophone Solo)

(Guitar Solo)

No they won´t put me in prison
I´ll be doing some hard time

Child supporting alimony
Taking my very last dime

I didn´t think about the damage
When I stepped across the line

(Guitar outro)
