Karaoke Track: Shuttin' Detroit Down by John Rich (Pop Hits)

Whinin&#39; on my evenin&#39; news
About how they&#39;re Iosin&#39; billions
And it&#39;s up to me and you
To come runnin&#39; to

Now I see all these big shots

&#39;Cause they&#39;re sellin&#39; make believe
And we don&#39;t buy that here
&#39;Cause in the real world they&#39;re
Shuttin&#39; Detroit down

Well pardon me ifl don&#39;t shed a tear

DC&#39;s bailin&#39; out them bankers
As the farmers auction ground
Yea while they&#39;re livin&#39; it up on

While the boss man takes his
Bonus pay and jets on outta town

DC&#39;s bailin&#39; out them bankers
As the farmers auction ground
Yea while they&#39;re Iivin&#39; it up on

Wall Street in that
New York City town

And he can&#39;t afford to die

Shuttin&#39; Detroit down
Well that old man&#39;s been workin&#39;
In that plant most all his life
His pension plan&#39;s been cut in half

And he can&#39;t afford to die
And it&#39;s a cryin&#39; shame

Well that old man&#39;s been workin&#39;
In that plant most all his life
His pension plan&#39;s been cut in half

It gets me f&#39;lghtin&#39; mad

&#39;Cause he ain&#39;t the one to blame
When I look down and
See his calloused hands
Well let me tell you friend

It gets me fightin&#39; mad
&#39;Cause in the real world
They&#39;re shuttin&#39; Detroit down
While the boss man takes his
Bonus pay and jets on outta town

As the farmers auction ground
Yea while they&#39;re livin&#39; it up on
Wall Street in that

New York City town
Here in the real world

As the farmers auction ground
Yea while they&#39;re livin&#39; it up on
Wall Street in that
New York City town
Here in the real world
They&#39;re shuttin&#39; Detroit down

(Instrumental break)

They&#39;re shuttin&#39; Detroit down
In the real world

They&#39;re shuttin&#39; Detroit down
They&#39;re shuttin&#39; Detroit down
Here in the real world
