I remember this song came out in time for the 1992 election. Man, and we thought we had it bad THEN!! If we only knew how awful things would deteriorate. It all still rings true, tho. More so today than ever.
Bet most of those in his audience vote AGAINST their best interests and votes for the party that wants to bust the unions of the workin' man. Goes right over their heads.
@MsZippity You must be one of those guys who still thinks that YOUR party really gives a damn about you and has your best interest in mind. Keep dreaming.
It doesn't matter if they have a D or an R next to their name. They are all crooks and will continue to sell you and I down the river in order to line their pockets with their own greed.
Why would the songwriter, Kostas, leave the comma off between 'Lord' and 'have'? People really need to put commas where they should be, right, gang? Anwyay, Travis hit #5 in Billboard, 11-7-92. God bless!
I love you, Trav. Joe Hill would be so proud of you.
