We have the responsibility to work each day
Then on the weekend we watch some men go into the baseball field to play
We sit in the stands and listen to someone sing the opening song
As we drink our beer eat our popcorn while thinking there is nothing wrong
The game goes on as we watch our team
For we know this is how to let out some of our steam
There is so much trouble outside of our town
As we read the stories in the paper that makes our heart begin to frown
We watch a news reporter get off the greyhound bus
Asking if he could have a few minuets just to talk to us
There are so many questions he doesn’t know where to begin
With loosing so many jobs will this be the start to this wonderful towns end
Many new homes have been built over the years
And if we lose them it will bring so many tears
The rich in this country has always given us a bolt
As we watch how so many people made their vote
But now the question will always be there
For we learned they really didn’t care
So now we just have to wait to see how this will end
But through it all we still have many friends
