Waitin' in Your Welfare Line

I got the hungries 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'ma 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 met you, babe, you nearly made me wreck My ol' '49 Cadillac I knew at a glance that it was you for me Yell, 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 '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 hand out) I'm waitin' in your welfare line --- Waitin' in Your Welfare Line - Buck Owens
