Deep Purple - Place In Line

I'm 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

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

Don't you think we're gonna make it
We've got a place in line
We're gonna make it some time
Somehow
