(Am)I used to love this town (Fmaj)and this neighorhood
(Am)The streets were safe, (Fmaj)the schools were good
(Am)The mill was hummin (Fmaj)twenty-four seven
(Am)I was forman on the line, (Fmaj)three to eleven
(Am)But eighteen months, (Fmaj)two days ago
(Am)The Mill closed down and (Fmaj)moved to (C)Mexico
(Am)I payed my bills, (Fmaj)I payed my dues
(Am)I payed my (Fmaj)share of (G)taxes too
(Am)Now I cant buy (Fmaj)my baby shoes
(Am)Ive got the (Fmaj)red, white, (G)pink-slip blues
I hide the pickup truck in Ricky Browns garage
Over on the next block, cause theres Repro to dodge
I slip out the back door Lord, I never thought Id live to see this day
Red White & Pink-Slip Blues lyrics at http://lyrics.cmlyrics.com
Where gonna need that truck when they come to take the house away
(Am)You know I love my country and (Fmaj)Im not one to complain
(Am)But theres a lot of us that feel (Fmaj)like weve been left out here
(C)Out in the rain
(Am)I payed my bills, (Fmaj)I payed my dues
(Am)I payed my (Fmaj)share of (G)taxes too
(Am)Now I cant buy (Fmaj)my little baby shoes
(Am)Ive got the (Fmaj)red, white, (G)damn pink-slip blues
