Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I came in broke
With red clay on my shoes
Your name was on my coat
Like a debt I couldn't lose
The train cut hard
Through the river fog
I heard your door slam
And I felt that dog
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I tried to run
But the night held tight
The moon on the tracks
Cut cold and white
[Chorus]
Hold that line
Hold that line
I been bent, not broke
Hold that line (hold that line)
Hold that line
Hold that line
When my hands go weak
You still call my name
[Verse 2]
Now the backroom sways
At the Blue Note bar
Your laugh still burns
Like a busted spark
The old men nod
With a drink and a grin
They know the kind of hurt
That won't stay in
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I tried to pray
But the roof shook down
That kind of fire
Don't stay underground
[Chorus]
Hold that line
Hold that line
I been bent, not broke
Hold that line (hold that line)
Hold that line
Hold that line
When my hands go weak
You still call my name
[Bridge]
[Choir]
Sing it low
Sing it true
Carry me home
Like the hard times do
I got scars for sale
And a heart for rent
But your love hit hard
Like a shotgun tent
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
If the dawn comes mean
I'll face it clean
With a worn-out grin
And a chain of dreams
So let the river rise
Let the cold wind bite
I'll still stand here
With you in sight
[Chorus]
Hold that line
Hold that line
I been bent, not broke
Hold that line (hold that line)
Hold that line
Hold that line
When my hands go weak
You still call my name
[Outro]
Hold that line
(hold that line)
Hold that line
(hold that line)

Style
Blues-rock with a slow 12/8 swamp sway, gritty delta-to-Chicago progression, and a long singing guitar break; verse stays sparse with kick, bass, and fingerpicked electric, pre-chorus opens with handclaps and a low church choir, chorus lands on fat drums, tremolo guitar, and stacked gang vocals. Lead vocal is rough and close-mic, with shouted doubles on the hook, call-and-response choir echoes, slide fills between lines, and a smoky, wide mix with bite in the upper mids., chicago blues, blues, delta blues
