The New World - Live Version

Lyrics

"Honest to goodness
 The bars weren't open this morning
 They must have been voting for a new president or something
 Do you have a quarter?"
 I said yes because I did,
 "Honest to goodness
 The tears have been falling
 All over the country's face."
 It was better before
 Before they voted for what's-his-name
 This was supposed to be the new world
 Flint, Ford, Auto, Mobile, Alabama,
 Windshield wipers, Buffalo, New York, Gary, Indiana
 Don't forget the Motor City
 This was supposed to be the new world
 All we need is money
 Just give us what you can spare
 Twenty or thirty pounds of potatoes
 Or 20 or 30 beers
 A turkey on Thanksgiving
 Like alms for the poor
 All we need are the necessities and more
 It was better before
 before they voted for what's-his-name
 This was supposed to be the new world
 Don't forget the Motor City
 This was supposed to be the new world
 (REPEAT)
