Broken Bottles
(Capo 2)
Intro
Verse 1
Ole Furnace Two Shut Down, At 3Pm
January Night, Never Light Again
One Hundred Fifty Families Need To Fill The Space
One Hundred Fifty Families Depending On This Place
Stepped Outside, Took Myself A Drag
The Old Glass Factory, Waved A White Flag
Chorus
I Left The Service In ‘09, 2 Kids And A Wife
16 Years Doing All I Can.
Broken Bottles Have Turned Into Sand
Another Rust Belt Town With No Plan
Broken Bottles Have Turned Into Sand
Broken Bottles In My Hand
Verse 2
Jim Up In Corporate, Has-The-Company Fit To Win
Profits Are Up, He Sips On Tonic & Gin
Puts His Report Into A Leather Case
Billionaires Read It From Rockets In Space
Union Steward-Threw-His Hands In The Air
Local 140 Vanished, Who Knows Where
Bridge
Work Hard, Get Ahead..... Y’know We Shoulda Learned?
Work Hard, Get Ahead..... Guess We Got Burned?
Chorus
I Left The Service In ‘09, 2 Kids And A Wife
16 Years Doing All I Can.
Broken Bottles Have Turned Into Sand
Another Rust Belt Town With No Plan
Broken Bottles Have Turned Into Sand
Broken Bottles In My Hand
Outro
Work Hard, Get Ahead..... Y’know We Shoulda Learned?
Work Hard, Get Ahead..... Guess We Got Burned?
To Hell With What You Heard, Both Wings Are On The Same Bird.
To Hell With What You Heard, Both Wings Are On The Same Bird, Same Damn Bird....
