"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.
