Red, White & Pink Slip Blues

[Verse 1] I used to love this town and this neighborhood The streets were safe, the schools were good The mill was humming twenty-four seven I was forming on the line, three to eleven But eighteen months, two days ago The Mill closed down and moved to Mexico [Chorus] I payed my bills I payed my dues I payed my share of taxes too Now I can't buy my baby shoes Ive got the red, white, pink-slip blues [Verse 2] 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 going to need that truck when they come to take the house away [Chorus] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus]
