Great Divide from High Tide by Lynn Drury

8. GREAT DIVIDE
Written by Lynn Drury

If you were drowning I’d try and save you
No matter where your politics lie
If you were broken down, disillusioned
I’d give you a jump and send you on down the line

I’m just trying to stay centered here in the great divide
Trying to make a living, but they won’t let me come inside
Saw you in the parking lot, you could bring me a beer outside
Just trying to stay centered here in the great divide

If I were a priest, I would absolve you
Of every little bitty teeny weeny lie you told
But I ain’t falling for your guilt trip
“Cuz lately I been lightening up my load

I’m just trying to stay centered here in the great divide
Trying to make a living, but they won’t let me come inside
I been in this town so long, I never saw a shift in the tide
I’m just trying to stay centered here in the great divide

I’m just trying to stay centered here in the great divide
Trying to get my rocks off, but they won’t let me come inside
I been in this town so long, I never saw a shift in the tide
I’m just trying to stay centered here in the great divide
I’m just trying to stay centered here in the great divide
