From the recording Another Kind of Train

"No Straight Lines" by the Brother Bicker Band is a soulful exploration of the winding, unpredictable journey that comes with searching for love. The song’s lyrics take the listener through various adventures, from the deep south to the promised land, highlighting that there’s no easy, straight path to love. With a catchy, reflective chorus, the track captures the highs and lows of love, and the realization that the road to finding it is never as simple as it seems.

Lyrics

Verse 1
I went to the deep south
Looking for you
Went to the heartland
to find the truth
I swam in the river
Dig in the land
I climbed the mountain
I sifted the sand

CHORUS
Cuz there’s no straight lines
you’re looking for love
There’s no straight lines
when you are looking for love
There’s no straight lines
When you are looking for love
No there’s no straight lines
when you’re looking for love

Verse 2
I went to the Dr
To get a pill
I went to the lawyer
To write me a will
I went to the teacher
To get it right
I went to the preacher
Oh ya and I started a fight

CHORUS
Cuz there’s no straight lines
you’re looking for love
There’s no straight lines
when you are looking for love
There’s no straight lines
When you are looking for love
No there’s no straight lines
when you’re looking for love

Verse 3
My baby took me
To the promised land
I followed her footsteps
Holding her hand
She made me a promise
Down at the pier
Then she stepped in the water
And she disappeared

CHORUS
Cuz there’s no straight lines
you’re looking for love
No there’s no straight lines
when you are looking for love
