Get Back in Line

[Verse 1]

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

Standing at the corner waiting watching time go by

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

[Chorus]

'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

[Verse 2]

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

For I don't want you ever to see me

Standing in that line

[Chorus]

'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

[Outro]

Get back, get back

Get right back in the line
