How many are there out there like me?
I worked my life for love and family
Ten hour days, six day or more weeks
There were lean years and a few peaks
Saved my money a down payment for a loan
Payed off my credit cards left them alone
The company sold me out and left me floating
But I had no bills hauling me down I was toting
Years later paid off my house and retired middle class
Company lied about hours. to court took them to task
All I wanted was what I put in that was what I asked
Wanting my children to have more than me some money I hid
For education, old age to take me across the bridge
Now they are saying I should save the upper class
Those selling stocks, buying gold, in mass
I say they can kiss my---but reality I don't have a choice
Now the leaders bicker as to who really has the better voice
It is a sad day when you have to vote for those who got you in this mess
I guess the only way to look at it is, YES GOD, is giving us a test
