Grocery Store

Standin' in line at the grocery store
It's February, as cold as it gets
There's a little girl in front of me with no coat on
Her momma's buyin' tampons and cigarettes
I try to catch her eye, give her a smile
Tell her it's gonna be okay, but it might take a while

Everybody's got somethin' that they're searchin' for
Tuesday night, standin' in line at the grocery store

Cashiers seemed a little distracted
He's starin' off into space
He's well-dressed and handsome, 50-somethin'
And he seems so out of place
He looks like a football coach who just lost his way
Maybe he drinks too much, but who am I to say?

Everybody's got somethin' that they're searchin' for
Tuesday night, standin' in line at the grocery store

We all stare at the magazines
Movie stars and beauty queens
Everything that we're supposed to be
Times are hard right now, but we all get by somehow
Up and down the aisles of the American dream (dream)

Everybody's got somethin' that they're searchin' for
Everybody's got somethin' that they're searchin' for
Tuesday night (Tuesday night), marchin' in time (marchin' in time)
Standin' in line at the grocery store
