All Down the Line
By Jagger/Richards

Yeah, heard the diesel drumming all down the line
Oh, heard the wires a humming all down the line
Yeah, hear the women sighing all down the line
Oh, hear the children crying all down the line

All down the line
We'll be watching out for trouble, yeah
All down the line
And we'd better keep the motor running, yeah
All down the line
Well, you can't say yes and you can't say no
just be right there when the whistle blows
I need a sanctified girl with a sanctified mind to help me now

Yeah, all the people singing all down the line
Mmmm, watch the men all working, working, yeah (All down the line)

All down the line
We're gonna open up the throttle yeah
All down the line
We're gonna bust another bottle, yeah
All down the line

I need a shot of salvation, baby, once in a while
Hear the whistle blowing, hear it for a thousand miles

All down the line
We're gonna open up the throttle, yeah
All down the line
We're gonna bust another bottle, yeah
Well you can't say yes, and you can't say no
just be right there when the whistle blows
I need a sanctified mind to help me out right now

Be my little baby for a while
Won't you be my little baby for a while?
