She Tows the Line Lyrics

she tows the line
up the river, through the low lands
hanging out on the jetty,
by the arcade, it ain't high
see it so clear in her eyes
she won't be bringing it up again
so she rises and goes
so they'd never know
that she even came here at all

couldn't count the times
we'd believe in, just for going
walking the banks of the levy
where the old hopes all get thrown
as soon as we drift from their sight
they won't dare bring our names up again
and we'll rise and we'll hope
that they'll never know
that we even came here at all

he thinks we ride
on the meadow, heavy rolling
heading into the city
like they all have some place to go
to leave it now, so far behind
you can't blame people for giving in
to decide where they go
so they never know
that we even came here at all

Crooked Fingers is an American alt-folk band based in North Carolina and led by former Archers of Loaf lead singer Eric Bachmann. The rotation of band members has included such musicians as Lara Meyerratken, R.L. Martin, Jo Jameson, Barton Carroll and Dov Friedman.

In 1998, following the breakup of Archers of Loaf, Bachmann started work on a solo project that he named Crooked Fingers. The first outcome of this project, a self-titled release of various songs he had written, was released by WARM in 2000. It was followed shortly after by a second album on WARM, Bring on the Snakes. Reservoir Songs EP, a collection of covers of songs by artists such as Neil Diamond and Queen, was released on the Merge label in 2002. Red Devil Dawn followed in 2003, and Dignity and Shame in 2005.
