On Down The Line

on down the line





Tryin' to make a livin

That's the bottom line

It ain't easy tryin' to stretch

A nickle into a dime

Sweatin' for the dollar

Workin' for the man

Half goes to the

Landlord, lord

And half to uncle sam



I can't get no consolation

I don't get no paid vacation

I can't get no satisfaction

And my tractor don't get no traction

Just doin' the best i can

Tryin' to make a stand

Laughin' and cryin'

Livin' and dyin' on down the line



I'll leave my soul to jesus

I'll give my heart to you

And if you want the rest of me

Well, darlin you can have that too

Only love can save me

So darlin don't be late

If i don't get your lovin soon

I swear i'm gonna die today



I can't get no consolation

I don't get no paid vacation

I can't get no satisfaction

And my tractor don't get no traction

Just doin' the best i can

Just tryin' to make a stand

Laughin' and cryin'

Livin' and dyin' on down the line



If i were a rich girl

It wouldn't be the same

I'd buy me a cadilac

And then i'd change my name

A poor girls dream inside me

And you by my side

We drive into the sunset

Ride sweet baby ride



I can't get no consolation

I don't get no paid vacation

I can't get no satisfaction

And my tractor don't get no traction

Just doin' the best i can

Tryin' to make a stand

Laughin' and cryin'

Livin' and dyin' on down the line



On down the line

On down the line

On down the line
