A Fine Line Lyrics - Singles - Radney Foster

There's a curve in the highway, just south of town 

Where a man has pulled over to figure life out 

With only his conscience and the lonesome sound 

Of diesels winding up grade 

He's got a wife and two kids, they love him so 

A woman down in Georgia, she's startin' to show 

He's damned if he leaves her and he's sure damned if he don't 

And he wonders how life got this way 

'Cause it's a fine line in between the right and wrong 

He's been crossing over that border way too long 

He should've seen it coming at him right from the start 

Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart 

Now the call of the highway is a powerful thing 

Like the pull of a lover or a child in a swing 

Gave his heart to two women only one wears his ring 

They're both gonna have his babies now 

So how do you confess, what words won't explain? 

He never intended to cause this much pain 

Now he feels like a farmer who went praying for rain 

Got more than he bargained from the clouds 

And it's a fine line in between the right and wrong 

Yeah, he's been crossing over that border way too long 

He should've seen it coming at him right from the start 

Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart 

He'll turn his car around tonight, go home and try to face the truth 

Everyone involved's getting hurt and there ain't nothing he can do 

He should've seen it coming at him right from the start 

Now there ain't no escape, now there ain't no escape 

From a fine line in between the right and wrong 

Yeah, he's been crossing over that border way too long 

He should've seen it coming at him right from the start 

Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart 

Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart 

Yeah, they're all gonna wind up with a broken heart 

Nobody's gettin' out without a broken heart
