Waiting in Your Welfare Line
By Buck Owens
G Em A7
I got the hun-gries for your love
D7 G
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
C
Well I ain't got nothing but the shirt on my back
D7 G
And an old two-button suit
C
I walked outta my job about a week ago
D7 G
And I'm now sleeping in a telephone booth
C
But I'm gonna be the richest guy around
D7 G
The day you say you're mine
Em A7
I got the hungries for your love
D7 G
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
C
Well when I first met you babe you nearly
D7 G
Made me wreck my old 49 Cadillac
C
Yeah I knew at a glance that it was you for me
D7 G
I had to have your love by heck
C
I'm gonna follow you baby wherever you go
D7 G
I got nothing to lose but my time
Em A7
I got the hungries for your love
D7 G
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
C
Well you made me the top dog of your hill
D7 G
And I was overjoyed
C
But it didn't take long until the thrill was gone
D7 G
I joined the ranks of the unemployed
C
Now I'm right back where that I started from
D7 G
But I ain't gonna change my mind
Em A7
I got the hungries for your love
D7 G
And I'm waiting in your welfare line
D7 G
I'm waiting in your welfare line gimme a handout
D7 G
I'm waiting in your welfare line
