מילים לשיר Line ’em Up – James Taylor

and the staff lined up to say goodhe said, "nobody knows me, nobody understands.
These little people were good to me, oh I'm gonna shake some hands." Somebody line 'em up, line 'em all up, line 'em up, line 'em all up.
Somebody line 'em up, line 'em all up, line 'em up, line 'em all up. At that time my heart was all broke, I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke

They've got waves out on the ocean, they're gonna wear away the land, Somebody line 'em up, line 'em all up, line 'em up, line 'em all up.
Want you to line 'em up, line 'em all up, line 'em up, line 'em all up. Oh, I've seen corn in Kansas and I've seen picket fences and certain cowboy dances.

Who waits for you, lonely tired old toad?
It's your life laid out before you like the broken white line down the center of the road. Line 'em up line 'em all up, line 'em up, line 'em all up.
Line 'em up, line 'em all up, line 'em up, line 'em all up. Yeah, big moon landing, people are standing up,
smiles for the loved ones, they go walking on down the aisles.
Each re
Want you to line 'em up, lin.
