I stood in line and left my name

took about six hours or so

Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game

said they`d let me know

I put in my time till the Pocono line

shut down two years ago

I was staying at the mission till I met Marie

now I can`t stay there no more





Fella `cross town said he`s lookin` for a man

to move some old cars around

maybe me and Marie could find a burned-out

van and do a little settlin` down

Aw, but I`m just dreamin`, I ain`t got no ride

and the junkyard`s a pretty good ways

that job`s about a half week old besides

it`d be gone now anyway





Unemployment said I got no more checks

and they showed me to the hall

my brother died in Georgia some time ago

I got no one left to call

Summer wasn`t bad below the bridge

a little short on food that`s all

Now I gotta get Marie some kind of coat

we`re headed down into fall





I used to play the mouth harp pretty good

hustled up a little dough

but I got drunk and I woke up rolled

a couple of months ago

they got my harp and they got my dollar

them low life so and so`s

harps cost money and I ain`t got it

it`s my own fault I suppose





The Pocono`s down but the Chesapeak`s runnin`

two freights everyday

if it was just me I`d be headed south

but Marie can`t catch no train

She`s got some pain and she thinks it`s a baby,

says we gotta wait and see

in my heart I know it`s a little boy

hope he don`t end up like me





Well, the man`s still grinnin` says he lost my file

I gotta stand in line again

I want to kill him but I just say no

I had enough of that line my friend

I head back to the bridge, its getting kinda cold

I`m feelin` too low down to lie

I guess I`ll just tell Marie the truth

hope she don`t break down and cry





Marie she didn`t wake up this morning

she didn`t even try

she just rolled over and went to heaven

my little boy safe inside

I laid them in the sun where somebody`d find them

caught a Chesapeak on the fly

Marie will know I`m headed south

so`s to meet me by and by





Marie will know I`m headed south

so to meet me by and by
