| [00:16.25] |
This is my town |
| [00:18.85] |
Out in the rust belt fields |
| [00:22.84] |
We were bangin’ out Buicks |
| [00:26.47] |
And Oldsmobiles |
| [00:30.48] |
There was always a job |
| [00:34.68] |
And the money was there |
| [00:38.75] |
Some say we got a little lazy |
| [00:41.40] |
Nobody seemed to care |
| [00:45.48] |
But they figured it out |
| [00:49.34] |
And shipped the elbow grease |
| [00:53.85] |
Down to Mexico |
| [00:57.06] |
And off to the Chinese |
| [01:01.64] |
And I learned a little something |
| [01:04.77] |
Bout how things are |
| [01:10.07] |
No one remembers your name |
| [01:12.58] |
Just for working hard |
| [01:22.14] |
Drove into the ground |
| [01:24.90] |
Till your factory’s cold |
| [01:29.43] |
Then they tear it all down |
| [01:32.67] |
And the parts get sold |
| [01:37.04] |
Come the bankers now |
| [01:40.92] |
Pickin’ over the bones |
| [01:44.88] |
I got three more neighbors now |
| [01:48.37] |
Bout to lose their homes |
| [01:52.58] |
Cause they figured it out |
| [01:56.36] |
And shipped the elbow grease |
| [02:00.46] |
Down to Mexico |
| [02:03.28] |
And off to the Chinese |
| [02:08.06] |
And I learned a little something |
| [02:11.46] |
Bout how things are |
| [02:16.57] |
No one gets a bonus |
| [02:19.50] |
For bloody knuckles and scars |
| [02:24.19] |
No one remembers your name |
| [02:26.89] |
Just for working hard |
| [02:51.47] |
There’s a casino boat |
| [02:55.50] |
It’s up around Boon |
| [02:59.12] |
Think I’ll buy me a bottle |
| [03:02.16] |
And a motel room |
| [03:07.11] |
Put all I have left |
| [03:10.65] |
On a little black square |
| [03:14.92] |
Risk it all like the big boys |
| [03:17.72] |
Like I don’t even care |
| [03:22.38] |
They’ll drive you into the ground |
| [03:26.23] |
Till your engine’s cold |
| [03:30.04] |
Call in the auctioneer |
| [03:33.33] |
As the banks foreclose |
| [03:38.12] |
And I learned a little something |
| [03:41.24] |
Bout how things are |
| [03:45.76] |
No one gets a bonus |
| [03:49.04] |
For bloody knuckles and scars |
| [03:54.17] |
No one remembers your name |
| [03:56.68] |
Just for working hard |
| [04:01.07] |
|
