Get Back in Line

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 mama 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 But I don't ever want you 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 right back in the line
