Lyrics On the Border - Eagles

Cruisin' down the center of a two-way street
Wonderin' who is really in the driver's seat
Minding my business, along comes big brother
Said, "Son, you better get on one side or the other"

(Whoa-ooh) I'm out on the border
(Whoa-ooh) I'm walkin' the line
Don't you tell me 'bout your law and order (whoa-ooh)
I'm tryna to change this water to wine

After a hard day, I'm safe at home
Fooling with my baby on the telephone
Out of nowhere, somebody cuts in
And said, "Hmm, you're in some trouble, boy
We know where you've been"

(Whoa-ooh) I'm out on the border
(Whoa-ooh) I thought this was a private line
Don't you tell me 'bout your law and order (whoa-ooh)
I'm tryna change this water to wine

Never mind your name, just give us your number, hmm
Never mind your face, just show us your card, hmm
And we wanna know whose wing are you under
You better step to the right, or we can make it hard

(Whoa-ooh) I'm stuck on the border
(Whoa-ooh) all I wanted was some peace of mind
Don't you tell me 'bout your law and order (whoa-ooh)
I'm tryna change this water to wine

On the border
On the border
On the border
On the border

On the border (leave me be, I'm just walkin' this line)
I'm out on the border
On the border (all I wanted was some peace of mind, peace of mind)
I'm out on the border

On the border (can't you see I'm tryna change this water to wine?)
I'm out on the border
On the border (don't you tell me 'bout your law and order)
I'm out on the border (I'm sick and tired of all your law and order)

On the border (sick and tired of it)
I'm out on the border
On the border
