|
Honest to goodness |
|
The bars weren't open this morning |
|
They must have been voting for a new president of something |
|
Do you have a quarter? |
|
I said, "Yes", because I did |
|
Honest to goodness, the tears have been falling |
|
All over this country's face |
|
[Chorus 1] |
|
It was better before, before they voted for What's-His-Name |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
It was better before, before they voted for What's-His-Name |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
Flint Ford Auto |
|
Mobile, Alabama |
|
Windshield Wiper |
|
Buffalo, New York |
|
Gary, Indiana |
|
Don't forget the Motor City |
|
Baltimore and D.C |
|
Now all we need is |
|
[Chorus 2] |
|
Don't forget the Motor City |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
Don't forget the Motor City |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
All we need is money |
|
Just give us what you can spare |
|
Twenty or thirty pounds of potatoes |
|
Or twenty or thirty beers |
|
A turkey on Thanksgiving |
|
Like alms for the poor |
|
All we need are the necessities and more |
|
[Chorus 1] |
|
It was better before, before they voted for What's-His-Name |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
It was better before, before they voted for What's-His-Name |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
[Chorus 2] |
|
Don't forget the Motor City |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
|
Don't forget the Motor City |
|
This was supposed to be the new world |
