Jerry Jeff Walker Cross The Borderline Lyrics

Cross The Borderline Lyrics

Daniel Moore



There ain't nothin' in the world

That can take away my memories

Of my travels through the great northwestern

Mountain scenery

With my woman by my side

With her lips like cherry wine

She kissed me, said she loved me

As we crossed the borderline.



CHORUS

Don't you fly away woman of mine

Don't you fade away; don't you be that kind

Don't you fly away woman of mine

Tell me that you love me

As we crossed the borderline.



If you're ever in Alaska, 

Take a message to my friend

That the glamour of the city life

Is as empty as the wind

It'll steal away love's joy;

It'll drive a heart stone blind

Makes a cold Alaskan winter 

Seem like something warm and fine.



Repeat Chorus



Oh, tell me how you love me as we cross that borderline
