Lyrics:
Written by Jesse Dayton, Hard Charger Music (BMI)
That was then this is now
Ain’t no consolation prize for you anyhow
30 years punchin’ the clock
For a big steak dinner
And a fake gold watch
Yes we’re livin’ in troubled times
Like a lone wolf workin' stiff livin’ by your wits
You put your dreams up on a shelf
Well your brotherhood's gone it’s every man for himself
Yeah the payoff is a ripoff
And the buyout well it’s a sellout
And the cold call is the last call
'Cause there’s nothin’ left to lose
Talkin' company man blues
Well you can’t shop at the mom and pop
'Cause they all went down when the corporation came to town
For what you’re given the cost of livin’
At the pumps and the store
But you still need more
Yeah the payoff is a ripoff
And the buyout well it’s a sellout
And the cold call is the last call
'Cause there’s nothin’ left to lose
Talkin' company man blues
It used to take one to know one
But we all got eaten up by the big one
Scream and shout ya tough it out
But they’re raisin’ up the ladder brother you don’t even matter
Well the payoff see it’s a ripoff
And the buyout well it’s a sellout
And the cold call is the last call
Because the pride comes right before the fall
There’s no communion in the union
Lots of splurgers on the mergers
Well now the white collar is just the blue collar
Singin’ the same blues as the field holler
And there’s a big tax on the tiny shack
With no expansion on the mansion
It’s just a tricky joke on the workin’ folk
'Cause they got nothin’ left to lose
Talkin' company man blues
