From Here To Ottawa (Hold The Line)

Lyrics:

You've been hauling like a midnight rider, holding down the line
You've been calling out for a reprieve, well, baby, so have I

You've been chipping at the stone so long, hoping it would take you home
The jagged edge of life, it will cut you, sometimes right straight down to the bone

Careful what it is that you're willing to serve or you may find that you wind up on the menu
Take it to the bank, my principles, I'll never surrender and I don't intend to

Hold the line

I see freedom as a tangible thing and I have reason to believe that it has 18 wheels
I don't assume to hold authority over anything except my faith and what I feel

Made an offering of open peace, but the olive branch, you know, was refused
The dogs of war insist they must devour themselves, never concerned with knowing peace's rule

It seems that you came for the scandal, heard the truth and now it looks like you've decided to stay
If we're really ever gonna transcend the trance, everyday is the day

Hold the line

Hold the line, while you can, hold the line my dearest friend
Hold the line, it all depends on if we can hold the line
Hold the line

You've been trucking like a midnight rider, holding down the line
You've been calling out for a reprieve, well, baby, so have I

Careful what it is that you are willing to serve or you may find that you wind up on the menu
Take it to the bank, my principles, I'll never surrender and I don't intend to

Hold the line
