Hangin' On The Line
Hangin' On The Line
(Music & Lyrics by Ronald D. Crowder)
ASCAP © 2023
This song is about the struggles that so many of us go through…to pay the bills, to live from day to day. And sometimes the weight of that is too much. And it can feel, quite frankly, like you are hanging on the line. Not a new idea, but my take on it.
Listen to song
I’ve got to find my way in this world
And it’s making me crazy
Cause it’s getting harder and harder
To keep up the pace now baby
It’s got me hangin’ on the line
Workin’ overtime, baby, baby
It keeps on knocking at my door
I’m crawlin’ on the floor, baby, baby
Been livin’ on the edge
And I can’t hold out much longer
Struggle to make ends meet
But my sweat never feeds this hunger…it’s no wonder…
It’s got me hangin’ on the line
Workin’ overtime, baby, baby
It keeps on knocking at my door
I’m crawlin’ on the floor, baby, baby
And when my bones get tired
Left with no desires but survival
They’ll bury me with my dreams
My hopes, they were dead on arrival
It’s got me hangin’ on the line
Workin’ overtime, baby, baby
It keeps on knocking at my door
I’m crawlin’ on the floor, baby, baby
It’s got me hangin’ on the line
Workin’ overtime, baby, baby
It keeps on knocking at my door
I’m crawlin’ on the floor, baby, baby
It’s got me hangin’ on the line
Workin’ overtime, baby, baby
It keeps on knocking at my door
I’m crawlin’ on the floor, baby, baby
