I don't mean to nit pick but I thought he says "I've walked a file line" like when you were told in school to stand in "single file" line. I took it to mean he followed a path blindly w/o questioning it. That line I'm not 100% on, though. Maybe he does say "fine, old" line.
But I do know that he says "[But there's no] Hallelujah." As in there is no rejoicing b/c "it will be gone soon."

Just my thoughts and version. Love this song.
