Lyrics

Trailer Trash

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was young when I first got started

Things didn't always go my way

I will never lose the hunger

To make a stand, survive another day

I feel my spirit growing stronger

I must admit, it's taking its toll on me

They took my home and all I owned in taxes

But they'll never take my soul or dignity

I played the game right down the line, I was honest

I can't believe people can be so cruel

The boys and I just want to make a living

Oh, but what do you do when you're surrounded by a load of fools?

I held my own and I don't need no sympathy

Just ask my friends and they will put you right

I don't feel that I did anything wrong

I certainly won't go down without a fight

You better be coming back

You can depend on that

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

You better be on the attack

Oh, they won't get away with that

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

When I get to where I'm going I'll take some time out

Reflect upon the good time I've had

I'll keep on moving south in my trailer

There'll be no time to be bitter or sad

You better be coming back

Oh, you can depend on that

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

You better be on the attack

No, they won't get away with that

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

You better be coming back

Oh, they won't get away with that

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash

I look the other way when they call me trailer trash
