Billy Preston
All Down the Line (Live 1973)
[Intro]
Hey oh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Yeah, heard the diesel drumming all down the line
Yeah, heard the wires a humming all down the line
Yeah, hear the women sighing all down the line
Yeah, watch the children crying all down the line

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Well, you can’t say yes and you can't say no
Just be right there when the whistle blows
She's a sanctified girl with a sanctified mind to help me now

[Verse 2]
Yeah, hear the women sighing all down the line
Yeah, watch the children crying all down the line

[Chorus]
We’ll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Well, you can't say yes and you can't say no
Just be right there when the whistle blows
She's a sanctified girl with a sanctified mind to help me now
Get him baby
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
And we keep the motor running, yeah
Need a shot of salvation, baby, once in a while
Yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

[Outro]
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
You know
Oh yeah
