Labor Day '08 |
| I moved into the city well because, because, because |
| It sure was loud and gritty and it sure was what it was |
| I moved out to the suburb and I keep on paying bills |
| I’ve been here twenty years and I guess I’ll be here till |
| I’m knocking back a Bud Light on a Labor Day, hey, hey |
| Thinking 'bout the jobs that are gone to stay, hey, hey |
| I ride along the ever-sprawling thoroughfares of town |
| But no familiar face I see while riding round and round |
| And who are all these people living here like kings and queens |
| And what are all these private gated subdivision things |
| And I’m knocking back a Bud Light on a Labor Day, hey, hey |
| Thinking 'bout the jobs that are gone to stay, hey, hey |
| My sister had a baby, but it’s not as cute as her |
| Why might that had happen, tell me how could that occur |
| My daughter says I am crazy ‘cause I can’t make up my mind |
| I can of course it takes me just-a longer length of time |
| I’m knocking back a Bud Light on a Labor Day, hey, hey |
| Thinking 'bout the jobs that are gone to stay, hey, hey |
| Knocking back a Bud Light on a Labor Day, hey, hey |
| Thinking 'bout the jobs that are gone to stay, hey, hey |
| Walk down by the river where a mole has blindly been |
| Feel the ground beneath your feet go slowly sinking in |
| A flock of geese cries over like a rusty sounding hinge |
| Well summer’s all but gone, it is the end of quite a binge |
| I’m knocking back a Bud Light on a Labor Day, hey, hey |
| Thinking 'bout the jobs that are gone to stay, hey, hey |
| Knocking back a Bud Light on a Labor Day, hey, hey |
| I’m thinking 'bout the jobs that are gone to stay, hey, hey |
