Get Back In Line

Get Back In The Line - The Kinks

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

'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

For I don't want you ever to see me

Standing in that line

'Cause that union man 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
