Buck Owens - Waitin' In Your Welfare Line 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 outta 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 hungries for your love 
And I'm waitin' in your welfare line 
Well, when I first saw you babe, 
You nearly made me wreck 
My ol' '49 Cadillac 
I knew at a glance 
That it was you for me; 
I had to have your love by heck 
I'm gonna follow you baby 
Wherever you go; 
I got nothin' to lose Buck Owens - Waitin' In Your Welfare Line - http://motolyrics.com/buck-owens/waitin-in-your-welfare-line-lyrics.html
But my time 
I got the hungries for your love, 
And I'm waitin' in your welfare line 
--- Instrumental ---
Well, you made me 
The top dog on your hill, 
And I was overjoyed 
But it didn't take long 
'Til 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...
