(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
I am living
In this line
I know my place
Could think of no way
Of edging along
In a loser's race
The line was moving slowly
Day by night
Everybody's shuffling on
To keep a place in the line
Place in the line
Nine long years
I've been in line
Getting nowhere
There is no reason
For this line
I don't care
Everybody's standing
In the burning sun
Everybody's shuffling on
Keeping a place in the line
Place in the line
Don't you think we're gonna make it
We've got a place in line
We're gonna make some time somehow
