Waitin' In Your Welfare Line Lyrics
I got the hungrys for your love
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
Well I ain't got nothing
but the shirt on my back
and an old two button suit
I walked out on my job about a week ago
and now I'm sleepin' in a telephone booth
But I'm a gonna be the richest guy around
the day you say you're mine
I got the hungrys for your love
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
Well when I first met you babe you nearly made me wreck my old 49 Cadillac
Yeah I knew at a glance that it was you for me I had to have your love by heck
Now I'm right back where that I started from but that ain't gonna change my mind
I got the hungrys for your love
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
[ guitar ]
Well you made me the top dog on your hill
and I was overjoyed
But it didn't take long until the thrill was gone
I joined the ranks of the unemployed
Now I'm right back where that I started from but that ain't gonna change my mind
I got the hungrys for your love
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
I'm waitin' in your welfare line
gimme a hand out
I'm waitin' in your welfare line
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
but the shirt on my back
and an old two button suit
and now I'm sleepin' in a telephone booth
the day you say you're mine
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
and I was overjoyed
I joined the ranks of the unemployed
and I'm waitin' in your welfare line
gimme a hand out
