Sung in a drunken fashion.

Colder hiccups. (Excuse me.)

Verse 1:
Hmmmm.{1}
As sure as day is dark and night is light,
Hey, I don't think that I said that right.
Well, anyway I'm flyin' high tonight,
I feel fine, (Fellin' fine.)
I walk the line. (Walk the line.)

Verse 2:
Hmmmm.
I find it very, very easy to be true,
But the question is, to be true to who?
'Cause I ain't got no one to be true to.
And that's just fine, (That's just fine.)
I walk the line. (Walk the line.)

Verse 3:

There's a windin' road that runs right by my shack,
It was late last night, I started back.
When a patrolman drove right up to find,
I paid the fine, couldn't walk the line.

Verse 4:
Hmmmm.
I find it very, very hard to hit these notes,
But that's the low down way this song is wrote.{2}
I think I need a little somethin' to wet my throat,
Thank you, friend, (Thank you friend.)
I walk the line. (Walk the line.)

Verse 5:
Hmmmm. Hiccup. Hmmm.
I find it very, very easy to forget,
That Johnny Cash is the one that wrote this hit.
I guess I might get sued a little bit,
He was a friend of mine, (Friend of mine.)
I walk the line. (Walk the line.)

Hmmmm. Hiccup. Hmmm.
Fade.
Hiccup. Hmmm.

Ben Colder biography

Ben Colder was the alter ego of singer Sheb Wooley (of "The Purple People Eater"{1} fame), which he used specifically for recording parodies of country hits.

Due to various acting commitments, Wooley had been unable to record the song "Don't Go Near the Indians,"{2} which was instead cut by Rex Allen for a significant hit in 1962. Wooley recorded a drunken-sounding parody called "Don't Go Near the Eskimos"{3} and released it under the pseudonym Ben Colder (other choices for his alias reportedly included Ben Freezin and Klon Dyke). "Eskimos" was a Top 20 hit on the country charts, and Wooley decided to keep returning to his new comic persona on a regular basis.

Ben Colder had a few more chart singles throughout the '60s, including the parodies of, David Houston's "Almost Persuaded,"{4} as "Almost Persuaded No. 2,"{5} which went all the way to #6 in 1966, giving Colder the second-bigg.....MORE.....(full Ben Colder biography)
