I used to love this town and this neighborhood
2
The streets were safe, the schools were good

The mill was hummin' 24/7
4
I was formin' on the line, 3 to 11

But 18 months and 2 days ago
6
The mill closed down and moved to Mexico
7
I paid my bills, I paid my dues
8
And I paid my share of taxes too

Now I can't buy my baby shoes
10
I got these red, white and pink-slip blues
11
I hide the pickup truck in Ricky Brown's garage
12
Over on the next block 'cause there's a repo man to dodge

We're gonna need that truck when they come to take the house away

I paid my bills, I paid my dues

I paid my share of taxes too

Now I can't even buy my little baby shoes

Out in the rain

I paid my share of taxes too

Now I can't buy my kids no shoes

Hey politicians, we're talkin' to you
