well i'm walkin' a straight line, 'cuz i'm an honest man
led not into temptation, i'm doin' all that i can
i bring you flowers, roses, and pretty things
but woman, it ain't the same, since i gave you my ring
now i've pleaded, and i've begged, but you've been so cold
i might as well be invisible, darlin', or made of stone
now i'm not a reckless man, i'd never sell my soul
but i'd do almost anything for one quick shot in the hole
