Kinks - Get Back In Line lyrics

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 'cos 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 For 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
