Red, White & Pink-Slip Blues lyrics

Verse 1
I used to love this town,
and this neighborhood,
the streets were safe,
the schools were good,
the mill was humming 24/7,
I was foreman on the line 3 to 11
but 18 months and 2 days ago
the mill closed down
and moved to Mexico
Chorus
I paid my bills, I paid my dues
and I paid my share of taxes too
now I can't buy my baby shoes
I got these red, white, & pink slip blues
Verse 2
I hide the pickup truck in Ricky Brown's garage
(over on the next block)
cause there's a repo man to dodge
I slip out the back door
Lord I never thought I'd live to see this day
we're gonna need that truck
when they come to take the house away
Chorus
I paid my bills, I paid my dues
I paid my share of taxes too
now I can't even buy my little baby shoes
I got these red, white, & damn pink slip blues
Bridge
You know I love my country
and I'm not wandering away
but there's a lot of us
that feel like we've been stranded here out in the rain
Chorus
I paid my bills, I paid my dues
I paid my share of taxes too
now I can't buy my kids no shoes
I got these red, white, pink slip blues
Is anybody listening
Hey politicians we're talking to you
(Is anybody listening)
Are you gonna help us pull on through
