Waitin' In Your Welfare Line

In the style of

Buck Owens

Lyrics

i got the hungries
for your love
and i'm waitin' in
your welfare line

well i ain't got
nothin' but the
shirt on my back
and an old
two-button suit

i walked out on my job
about a week ago
and 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 hungries
for your love
and i'm waitin' in
your welfare line

well when i first
saw you babe
ya nearly
made me wreck
my old '49 cadillac

i knew at a glance
that it was
you for me
yeah i had to have
your love by heck

i'm gonna
follow you baby
wherever you go
i got nothin' to lose
but my time

i got the hungries
for your love
and i'm waitin' in
your welfare line

well you made me the
top dog on your hill
and i was overjoyed

but it didn't take long
till 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 hungries
for your love
and i'm waitin' in
your welfare line

yeah i'm waitin' in
your welfare line
gimme a handout
i'm waitin' in
your welfare line
