Songtexte

Facing the world ain't easy, when there isn't anything going

Standing at the corner waiting, watching time go by

Will I go to work today or shall I bide my time

'Cause when I see that union man walking down the street

He's the man who decides if I live or I die, if I starve, or I eat

Then he walks up to me and the sun begins to shine

Then he walks right past and I know that I've got to get back in the line

Now I think of what my mamma told me

She always said that it would never ever work out

But all I want to do is make some money

And bring you home some wine

I don't want you ever to see me standing in that line

'Cause that union man's got such a hold over me

He's the man who decides if I live or I die, if I starve or I eat

Then he walks up to me and the sun begins to shine

Then he walks right past and I know that I've got to get back in the line

Get back, get back, get back, back in the line
