《American Middle Class》歌词

[00:00:31] Tear this poorhouse down

[00:00:37] When you know how to build it back

[00:00:43] Hammer and nail between your heart

[00:00:46] And your hometown 'til you can carry

[00:00:50] This country on your back

[00:01:00] Mama glued the Keds sign on

[00:01:02] The back of my little white shoes

[00:01:05] Daddy never crossed the picket line

[00:01:08] It was hard but we made it through

[00:01:11] Only had one little pair of stonewashed jeans

[00:01:14] With a label on the back

[00:01:17] I'm a product of the never

[00:01:19] Give up American middle class

[00:01:25] Tear this poorhouse down

[00:01:31] When you know how to build it back

[00:01:37] Hammer and nail between your heart

[00:01:40] And your hometown 'til

[00:01:42] You can carry this country on your back

[00:01:53] I got my education at a school

[00:01:56] They could afford

[00:01:59] Scholarships went to the rich

[00:02:02] And the grants went to the poor

[00:02:04] So i stood behind the little downtown bar

[00:02:08] For spending money books and gas

[00:02:11] To be a certified member of the work

[00:02:13] Too much American middle class

[00:02:21] Now daddy can't get his pension

[00:02:24] Or Social Security

[00:02:27] Worked thirty damn years in a coal

[00:02:29] Mine feeding welfare families

[00:02:33] Struggle hard and hide it well

[00:02:36] You sure ain't rich and you sure as

[00:02:39] Hell ain't poor enough to get one little break

[00:02:42] 'Cause everything would collapse

[00:02:45] Without the hardworking God-loving

[00:02:47] Members of the American middle class

[00:02:53] Tear this poorhouse down

[00:02:59] When you know how to build it back

[00:03:05] Hammer and nail between your heart

[00:03:08] And your hometown 'til

[00:03:10] You can carry this country on your back
