Shuttin' Detroit Down (Originally Performed by John Rich)
My daddy taught me that in this country everyone's the same You work hard for your dollar and you never pass the blame When it don't go your way
Now I see all these big shots whinin' on my evening news About how they're losin' billions and it's up to me and you To come running to the rescue
Well pardon me if I don't shed a tear Cause they're selling make believe And we don't buy that here
Cause in the real world they're shutting Detroit down While the boss man takes his bonus pay and jets on out of town And DC's bailing out them bankers as the farmers auction ground
Yeah while they're living it up on Wall Street in that New York City town Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down
Well that old man's been workin' in that plant most all of his life Now his pension plan's been cut in half and he can't afford to die Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And it's a crying shame Cause he ain't the one to blame
When I look down and see his calloused hands Well let me tell you friend it gets me fightin' mad
Cause in the real world they're shutting Detroit down While the boss man takes his bonus pay and jets out of town And DC's bailing out the bankers as the farmers auction ground
Yeah while they're living it up on Wall Street in that New York City town Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down
Yeah while there' living it up on Wall Street in that New York City town Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down Here in the real world they're shuttin' Detroit down
In the real world they're shuttin Detroit down They're shuttin' Detroit down
