Hey, woo
Hey, woo
Broken man and his wife with a child ain't got no hope
Outta work outta time, old man winter's comin' on
One meal ain't enough for three
Is this the way its supposed to be
Daddy just walked out mamma raisin' family
Hey put your foot down and take a look round
Don't like what you see
No no no no no no
Hey put your foot down and take a look round
Don't like what you see
No no no no no no
Hey, woo
Hey, woo
Get in line there's no jobs and the kids are shootin' dope
Outta work outta time mamma's startin' to loose hope, hope
It ain't enough to pray
When you got no place to stay
Daddy just walked out mamma raisin' family.
Hey put your foot down and take a look round
Don't like what you see
No no no no no no
Hey put your foot down and take a look round
Don't like what you see
No no no
Put your foot down
No no no
Outro
Hey, woo
Hey wo
