Hogkill Blues |
| I’m waitin' for my dad |
| I’m waitin' for my dad |
| I’m waiting by the tunnel of the plant today, but he’s gone good lord he’s gone |
| Those union boys have left the line |
| Those union boys have left the line |
| They walked out of the plant today, they’re standing at the gate |
| The Governor sent the National Guard |
| The Governor sent the National Guard |
| The Guard came out to beat 'em down, but they stood good lord their ground |
| Mama said they’d be alright |
| Mama said they’d be alright |
| I cried out for my dad today, and she stayed in my room all night |
| The freeway’s littered with trash |
| That freeway’s littered with trash |
| Pulled a 16 penny nail out of my tire last night, got a window of broken glass |
| My working shoes are combat boots |
| My working shoes are combat boots |
| We stood toe to toe on the street today,??? |
| Well the end came overnight |
| Well the end came overnight |
| From behind the desk they called us down, he said «Why don’t you guys go back |
| inside…» |
| Then we talked about the news |
| Then we talked about the news |
| Cuttin' down hogs where we mourn our loss, was wonderin' who the enemy was |
| I’m waitin' for my dad |
| Well I’m waitin' for my dad |
| I’m waiting by the tunnel of the plant today, but he’s gone good lord he’s… |
