The factory

I was born in '63

Got a little job in the factory

I don't know much about Kennedy

I was too busy working in the factory

We got a kid that's two, we got another one due

We get by the best we can do

The factory's got a good medical plan

And, cousin, I'm a union man

Saying, Yes sir, no sir, yes sir, no sir, yes sir, no sir

I was born in Mechanicsburg

My Daddy worked for Pontiac 'til he got hurt

Now he's on disability

And I got his old job in the factory

Saying, Yes sir, no sir, yes sir, no sir, yes sir, no sir

Early in the morning I feel a chill

The factory whistle blows loud and clear

I'd kill my wife or she'd kill me

But we gotta go to work at the factory

Five days a week at the factory

Up early in the morning at the factory

I've been working in the factory

Johnny, I've been working in the factory

Kickin' asbestos in the factory

Breathin' that plastic in the factory

Punchin' out Chryslers in the factory

Makin' polyvinyl chloride in the factory
