Holly Near I Got Trouble lyrics

I been laid off, trouble got trouble
I been laid off, trouble tonight
First I want to talk about it
Then I want to fight
Then I want to make love to you all night
I been laid off, trouble got trouble
I been laid off, trouble tonight

You know we need the money, we need it bad
The money I was making is the last that we had
To do the feeding, feeding, our kids need clothes
They need feeding, payment on the loan


I came home angry, I let it show
I didn't mean to blame it on the best friend I know
I love you darlin', darlin', let's sleep in late
Come tomorrow, I'll go out and agitate

They hire a computer, hire a machine
And then they call the product "The American Dream"
And it ain't working, working, it's no surprise
When you ain't working, time to organize
