red, white & pink slip blues

Lyrics

i used to love this town and this neighborhood, the streets were safe, the schools were good, the mill was hummin' twenty-four seven, i was formin' on the line, three to eleven, but eighteen months, two days ago, the mill closed down and moved to mexico, i payed my bills, i payed my dues, i payed my share of taxes too, now i cant buy my baby shoes, ive got the red, white, pink-slip blues, i hide the pickup truck in ricky browns garage, over on the next block, cause there's repo's to dodge, i slip out the back door lord, i never thought id live to see this day, where gonna need that truck when they come to take the house away, you know i love my country and i'm not one to complain, but there's a lot of us that feel like we've been left out here, out in the rain, i payed my bills, i payed my dues, i payed my share of taxes too, now i cant buy my little baby shoes
