lyrics

The rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer,
I’m stuck here in this traffic, I’ll be home in an hour,
And my dad walked to school uphill and I just roll from the top down into the field.

Trying to move forward, trying’ to move around them,
Sitting on the freeway at five miles per hour,
Then I walk to school uphill, the school doors close to test my breaking will.

Cause I can’t work without a job and I won’t go back to the field, to risk another night up on that dirty rig, and I’ve worked all the dirty jobs, the ones that no one wants to do, the ones that tear that gaping hole inside your soul.

So trying to move forward, trying to make things better,
Holding on for dear life and dinner home on Sunday,
The city’s growing meaner, the country’s growing older,
Just lay down on a mattress and waste away the hours.

And rest up for that walk back up the hill,
To test my breaking heart and dying will,
Cause I can’ work without a job and I’ve got more bills on the way,
I can’t help but feel stuck in this dirty town,
When I’ve got all my life to live, but they only want the rent,
I can’t help but feel stuck in this dirty town.
