Lyrics

He was in section a to g
She was under h to t
Their eyes met across the queue
Look at you

He asked for her current address
She blushed and said how her hair was a mess
He said "I'd really like
To go out with you"
He said "we'll wait, 'til ??? day
And that way, the queen can pay
So I'll pick you up tomorrow"

She answered wearing slippers
Said she couldn't find a baby-sitter
He said "I'm going nowhere without you."
So she took her kids to her mom's for the night
And they went and the birght lights
In the town, mad them feel, like a million pounds

They went out for a romantic dinner
Then went to to see a real blues singer
She said "i really like, being with you"
And when they came to the end of the night
He asked her hard again in a fortnight
She said "I'll see your before, in the line
When we sign"

So two weeks later she's looking for him
But he's not in the queue amongst all the men
She's looking frantically, but no luck
She walks up to his friend
And asks him why he isn't signing ???
He shakes his head, she says "what's wrong?"
He said "they took him away, yesterday"
He said "you see my darling, they did a search
Turns out he's ??? in building work."

He said "I've seen it before, another broken heart
From love on the dole, love on the dole
It's love on the dole, love on the dole
Love on the dole
He said "it's love on the dole"
