On the Line (Live in ’79)

[Verse 1]
You know He calls you long distance
No doubt He's dropped you a line
Right now He's saying it on your hi-fi
Quit talking and listen awhile

[Pre-Chorus]
When you draw back the curtain
Paint a picture for you
If the billion stars don't convince you, baby
He's sent some letters, signed His name with love, too

[Chorus]
On the line to you
On the line to you
On the line to you
On the line to you
Dropping a line to you
Especially for you

[Verse 2]
He's got some bulletins on the radio
You turn the Beatles up instead
Why do you settle for strawberry fields?
His talk of heaven could fill more than your head

[Pre-Chorus]
When you draw back the curtain
Paint a picture for you
If the billion stars don't convince you, baby
He's sent some letters, signed His name with love, too

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]
You know He calls you long distance
Yes, He does!
No doubt He's dropped you a line
Hey, hey, yeah
Right now He's saying it on your hi-fi
Quit talking and listen awhile

[Pre-Chorus]
When you draw back the curtain
Paint a picture for you
If the billion stars don't convince you, baby
He's sent some letters
Signed His name with love, too

[Chorus]
On the line to you
Do you hear Him calling you?
On the line to you
Do you feel Him drawing you?
Dropping a line to you
Especially for
On the line to you
(On the line, on the line, on the line to you)
On the line to you

[Spoken: Terry Scott Taylor]
Everybody get ready. Put your hands together. A little surf beat. Here we go! Ready? Yeah! Surf's up. Where's Brian Wilson when you need him? Jan and Dean!

[Outro]
To you
To you
To you
Oh yeah! Let's go!
