A “theme” song about a guy, out of prison, struggling to walk the line.

I get off the bus and walk down the street
I stare at the faces I meet
I’m wonderin’ if anyone cares

I did my time
I paid my debt
but no one will let me forget
The things I done in my past

I’m on my own
I ain’t got no one
I’m walking too close to the edge
I’m walking too close to the edge

I’m digging a ditch
I ain’t gettin’ rich
Gotta struggle, every day

I can’t pay the rent, I can’t buy food
So maybe you’ll guess my mood
I don’t know how I’ll make my way

I’m on my own
I ain’t got no one
I’m walking too close to the edge
I’m walking too close to the edge

Don’t know my way
I’m walking too close to the edge
I’m walking too close to the edge

I feel lowdown
I can’t get around
The trouble I feel inside

I know it’s wrong, I know it’s bad
But I can’t help but being mad
I walking, I’m stepping off the edge

Don’t know my way
