  1. "Draggin' the Line" is a hit song by American #rock musician #TommyJames, who went solo after the #Shondells disbanded in 1970. It was first released as the B side of "Church Street Soul Revival" in 1970. The song was judged to have some hit potential so they went back in the studio and added horns to the master and re-released it as an A side #single in 1971. It was included on his second album, #ChristianOfTheWorld, in 1971 on the #RouletteRecords label.

    Makin' a livin' the old, hard way
    Takin' and givin' by day by day

    Draggin' my ass (draggin' my ass)

  7. Look over yonder
    What do you see?
    The 🌞 is a-rising
    Most definitely
    A new day is coming
    People are changing
    Ain't it beautiful?
    Crystal blue persuasion
    Better get ready to see the light
    🥰
    Love is the answer
    And that's all right
    So don't you give up now
    So easy to find
    Just look to your soul
    And open your mind
    Crystal blue persuasion
    It's a new vibration

  8. CHILDREN! BEHAVE!
    That's what they say
    when we're together
    & watch how you play
    They don't understand
    So we're 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽
    just as fast as we can
    👫🏽 to one another's 🖐🏽
    Trying to get away into the 🌃
    & then you put your arms around me
    & we tumble to the ground
    & then you say
    I Think We're Alone Now
