Tommy James Draggin' the Line

Makin' a livin' the old, hard way.
Takin' and givin' by day by day.
I dig snow and rain and the bright sunshine.
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].

My dog, Sam, eats purple flowers.
Ain't got much, but what we got's ours.
We dig snow and rain and the bright sunshine.
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].

I feel fine. I'm talkin' 'bout peace of mind.
I'm gonna take my time. I'm gettin' the good sign.
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].

Lovin' the free and feelin' spirit
Of hugging a tree, when you get near it.
Diggin' the snow and rain and the bright sunshine.
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].

I feel fine. I'm talkin' 'bout peace of mind.
I'm gonna take my time. I'm gettin' the good sign.
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line].

Draggin' the line [draggin' the line]. La la la la la la la-la-la.
Draggin' the line [draggin' the line]. La la la la la la la.
