Line 'Em Up Sözleri

I remember Richard Nixon back in '74

And the final scene at the White House door

And the staff lined up to say good-bye

Tiny tear in his shifty little eye

He said nobody knows me

Nobody understands

These little people were good to me

Oh I'm gonna shake some hands

CHORUS:

Somebody line 'em up

Line 'em all up

Line 'em up

Line 'em all up

Line 'em up

Line 'em all up

Line 'em up

Line 'em all up

At that time my heart was all broke

I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke

And I turned away from my loving kind

Try to leave my body and live in my mind

But it's much too much emotion

To hold it in your hand

They've got waves out on the ocean

They're gonna wear away the land

- Chorus -

Oh I've seen corn in Kansas

And I've seen picket fences

And certain cowboy dances

I've gone lining up for shows

I've been safely placed in rows

Sure I know how it goes

Another day goes by

Little time machine

I'm breaking my brain

Over what it might mean

Just to claim the time

And to turn away

To make today today

Who waits for you

Lonely tired old toad

It's your life laid out before you

Like the broken white line down the center of the doggone road

- Chorus -

Yeah, big moon landing

People all standing up

Smiles for the loved ones

They go walking on down the aisles

Each re-engages stepping into the sun

I watch them turn like pages

One by one by one

- Chorus -
