"honest to goodness
the bars werent 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 the countrys face
it was better before before they voted for whats his name
this is suppose to be the new world
flint ford auto
mobil alabama
windshield wiper
buffalo new york
gary indiana
don't forget the motor city
baltimore and d.c.
now all we need is
don't forget the motor city
this was suppose 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
it was better before they voted for what his name
this is suppose to be the new world
don't forget the motor city
this was suppose to be the new world".
