Long One

They tell 'em not to feel scared
 They're saying that the money and security's still there
 They say we're fighting for a prayer oh
 But now its coming no it's coming oh I swear I swear
 But one day it will soon be here
 And when the man
 He got so tired of waiting says
 Not beaten by the way the government treats the system
 Said now you must be strong
 Says you got to carry on
 And you can be that man, that we've been fighting with for so long
 Get ready to ride its gonna be a long one
 Living and die its gonna be a long one son
 You've got to try, its gonna be fine fine fine
 You and I, its gonna be a long one son

 Oh this friend of mine, sitting on the picket line
 Wondering how he's gonna pay his bills this time
 The company said the economy has run them dry
 But if we can all just work together
 You can work here, as long as forever
 But we gotta take your pay, straight down to minimum wage
 Get ready to ride its gonna be a long one
 Living and die its gonna be a long one son
 You've got to try, its gonna be fine fine fine
 You and I, its gonna be a long one son

 If you're unemployed now, you don't have to be ashamed somehow
 You're just 1 in 400, 000 in a crowd
 You see me lift my hand up lift my hand up in the crowd
 Filling out applications online, thinking that you're gonna get a job this time
 There's only 100 of you, but only 2 jobs you got to do
 Get ready to ride its gonna be a long one
 Living and die its gonna be a long one son
 You've got to try, its gonna be fine fine fine
 You and I, its gonna be a long one son
