Standing in line marking time-
Waiting for the welfare dime
'Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by
As he catches the poor ladies' eyes
Just for fun he says "get a job"

1. Say him on the tour for that album...

It was a great concert, he is a fantastic musician and has gone back to his roots, bluegrass....

I want to add that this song changed my life.

It came out when I was working at an Accounting Firm on my way to a CPA.

I was listening to that song and realized that everyone in the firm, most of the clients and for the rest of my life I would be working with people who would always, when given the chance, say Get a Job!.....

I couldn't do it.

Walked out of the firm and got a job as a waiter and then set up shop to do tax returns.

2. Way to go

Most people find it hard to act on their gut feelings. I am sure good things will come your way.
I saw Bruce many times when he was playing with the Dead and he had a very large presence in the music during that era.

3. I have always loved this song...

And the message it brings.
