The mill was hummin' 24/7 I was formin' on the line 3 to 11 But 18 months and 2 days ago The mill closed down and moved to Mexico
I paid my bills, I've paid my due And I paid my share of taxes too Now I can't buy my baby shoes I got these red, white and pink slip blues
I hide the pickup truck in Ricky Brown's garage Over on the next block 'cause there's a ripper 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
I paid my bills, I've paid my due I paid my share of taxes too Now I can't even buy my little baby shoes I got these red, white and damn pink slip blues
You know I love my country and I'm not one to complain But there's a lot of us that feel like we've been stranded here out in the rain
I paid my bills, I've 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
Anybody listenin'? Hey politicians we're talkin' to you Are you gonna help us pull on through Or does it leave us standing in the rainin'?
