I’m on a direct line

Feelin’ fine

It’s been a long time comin’

Came just in time



Used to be, I stayed on the run

Sharp-shootin’ son of a gun

Never needed anything

Silk shirt or a diamond ring

Out of work and out of time

Sliding into trouble and slipping out of line

Living off of charity

Just it’s always good, good to be free



On a direct line

Feelin’ fine

It’s been a long time comin’

Came just in time



Could have been a family man

Clean cut social fan

But what’s the use in headin’ on

To some thing that is totally wrong

Didn’t want security

Sliding into morals and slipping out of key

Give me a chance so I can find

Just what is waiting at the end of the line



On a direct line

Feelin’ fine

It’s been a long time comin’

Came just in time



I’m on a direct line

Feelin’ fine

It’s been a long time comin’

Came just in time



Direct line

Feelin’ fine

It’s been a long time comin’

I’m on a direct line
