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
