lyrics

GUNNIN'

Twenty years in this factory
Twelve hours a night on my feet
Foreman says, "They're sending the jobs overseas."
Gunnin' for me

Dry as bone, poison in the well
Chokin' on the dust from the lies they sell
What passes for true in the land of the free?
Gunnin' for me

I don't want to be left out
Of the dreams my daddy taught me about
Prayers and stumbles bring you to your knees
Gunnin' for me

Punch that clock and don't drag your feet
Wrestled the devil but he can't be beat
From the end of my rope at the hangin' tree
Gunnin' for me

I don't want to be left out
Of the dreams my daddy taught me about
Prayers and stumbles bring you to your knees
Gunnin' for me
