In the unemployment line
In the unemployment line
I see the butcher and the baker
The faker and the quaker
And an old girlfriend of mine
There's white collars blue collars and no collars too
Talking about the bad new times
And we all get together
Every Wednesday afternoon
In the unemployment line
Now who do you think was there today
Talking about food and rent
There was a hard hat a fat cat
A girl from the laundromat
And one ex-president
I raised my eyes and prayed to the Lord
Please save this world of mine
Then I turned around and I saw God
Standing in the unemployment line
In the unemployment line
In the unemployment line
Hey I'll see all of you
In a week or two
In the unemployment line
