歌詞

I was born in Uniontown
When the Union was still here
Now these days here in Uniontown
The future ain't so clear
The downtown streets are whispers
And your senses start to deaden
There's a darkness taking hold round here
And I can feel it spreadin'
Now no one comes to Uniontown
If they ain't prepared to fight
But we're droppin' dead, two, three a week
And we're fightin' for our lives
From pain pills to pandemics
It's the same sad tale to tell
I was born in Uniontown
Ain't dyin' here as well
In the Battle of Uniontown
The town was lost somehow
The union's gone but we're still here
Who's fightin' for us now?
Jobs have come and gone so fast
From fracking back to coal
They chewed us up and spit us out
Left nothing but a hole
Banks and politicians
Ravaged all that they could see
The Monongahela River could never
Wash their vile souls clean
CHORUS
In the Battle of Uniontown
The town was lost somehow
The union's gone but we're still here
Who's fightin' for us now?
The people here are made of steel
But steel in time will rust
They say the future's post-industrial
What the hell's that mean for us?
For hard people in hard times
It's getting hard to hide the shame
You'll turn to almost anything
To have something to blame
CHORUS
In the Battle of Uniontown
The town was lost somehow
The union's gone but we're still here
Who's fightin' for us now?
What used to be the Promised Land
Is now a dead-end road
I swear one day I'm gonna leave
But I got no place to go
Winds lash the Alleghenies
But not the winds of change
So the Battle for Uniontown
Still rages to this day
CHORUS X2
In the Battle of Uniontown
The town was lost somehow
The union's gone but we're still here
Who's fightin' for us now?
In the Battle of Uniontown
The town was lost somehow
The union's gone but we're still here
Who's fightin' for us now?
