Grocery Store - Angaleena Presley

Standin' in line at the grocery store

It’s February as cold as it gets

There’s a little girl in front of with no coat on

Her momma’s buying 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 standing in line at the grocery store

Cashiers seem a little distracted

He’s starin' off into space

He’s well dressed and handsome, fifty-something

And he seems so out of place

He looks like a football coach

Who just lost his way

Maybe he drinks to much

But who am I to say

Everybody’s got somethin' that they’re searchin' for

Tuesday night standing 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

Everybody’s got somethin' that they’re searchin' for

Everybody’s got somethin' that they’re searchin' for

Tuesday night, marchin' in time, standin' in line at the grocery store
