In The Red

I think it's time to go
I'm feeling loose
this old town is rough
and looking bruised
they say the economy
is on the move
but it don't seem that way
wearing these boots

my little one was born
just the other day
came out in a uniform
will work for pay
is this what you got to do?
just to get ahead?
so put it all down on black
I'm in the red

do you feel like you've been used and abused?
they don't work for you and me do they now?
they aren't sitting
in the red

think it's time to go
I'm in the red
my whole family's broke
been left for dead
maybe its geography
that's got me beat
the only way to win
is if you cheat

do you feel like you've been used and abused?
Are you tired of every excuse that they use
they don't work for you and me do they now?
they aren't sitting
in the red
