michael johnson - company man lyrics
she’s got my picture inside of her locket
she’s got a most unforgettable face
she goes for walks with her hands in her pockets
she is a girl of impeccable taste
i work the mill and i vote with the union
just like my father, i’m a company man
she’ll go away to a school in new england
i’ll spend my life working with my hands
and oh she’s never gonna be mine i know
some things were decided so long ago
i sit alone in a chair in her parlor
and i look down at the cuts on my hands
her father smiles, he treats me kindly
but i know i don’t fit into his plans
we’ll meet tonight down at the drug store
we’ll say goodbye and tomorrow she’ll leave
she’ll cry and say she’ll love me forever
but i know in time she’ll forget about me
and oh she’s never gonna be mine i know
some things were decided so long ago
but oh someday i’ll own this factory
someday i’ll own this town
someday i’ll get her back
some way, somehow
