Back before 1955
If you made it out of Harlan alive
You took 23 to 30
Traded a coal dark mine for
Henry Ford's assembly line
But the air is still dirty
The Cuyahoga River's burning
And the lakes are panoposin'
Seven acres and a mine, sugar
A suburban home with union dues
But still somebody owns you
They shipped your job off to Japan and
Kentucky's got a Toyota plant
Akron ain't the rubber capital no more
There's hillbillies from Brunswick to Richmond
And Lake Erie's open for fishin'
And they made a villain out of old Henry Ford
The Cuyahoga River's burning
And the lakes are panoposin'
Seven acres and a mine, sugar
A suburban home with union dues
But still somebody owns you
Back before 1955
If you made it out of Harlan alive
You took 23 to 30
