There's no money left in this town
These factories have all closed down
We're on top of the scrap heap again
Well, politicians on TV
Say that we shouldn't give in
What do they know about suffering?
The working man first in line
The working man every time
The working man's always left behind
It's the working man first in line
The working man every time
The working man's always left behind
Our jobs are going to the far east
But that's not what bothers me
It's bankers bonus, tax increase
Don't tell me no.10 feels the pinch
But we'll get through, we always do
Without the help from the likes of you
So look to us when times get tough
The working man that have had it rough
The working man first in line
The working man every time
The working man's always left behind
It's the working man first in line
The working man every time
The working man's always left behind
It's the working man first in line
The working man every time
The working man's always left behind
