Lyrics
You came to work at half your age
And you raised two kids on a living wage
It was enough that you could count on
A steady paycheck to get by on
Each month, the bills all paid, family fed, but no path laid
To a future taking place elsewhere, now it seems like no-one cares
Working 18 years for the company
Now you can't find any work at all
Working 18 years now it's plain to see
And no-one owes you anything at all
The ones you trusted let you down
They sold the heart of this whole town
Now the young don't stick around
They all just leave for better ground
The politicians sent some cash, you know that won't ever last
You want the future that you had
Before you woke up in the past
