Nine Straight Lines Lyrics



Sunday, [she] puts her shades away

Oh, man, she's so popular

They're all telling her



And then drives to a party

Boys say, "you're so fabulous...

Have a drink with us."



They tell her nine straight lines

Lead straight into her heart

They tell her nine of my lives will die

Before they're ever gonna tear us apart



Meet her at the hotel

Frambroise on the coolest summer days

She'll be waiting by the silver ashtrays



And while she sips beside you

Oh, man, she's so popular

There's a letter waiting for her



What she wouldn't do to meet me

What she doesn't see: she needs me

What she wouldn't do to meet me



They tell her nine straight lines

Lead straight into her heart

They tell her nine of my lives will die

Before they're ever gonna tear us apart



And when you tell me there's another boy

That breaks my heart

And nine of my lives will die before

They're ever gonna tear us apart



Nine straight lines

Lead straight into her heart

They tell her nine of my lives will die

Before they're ever gonna tear us apart
