Lyrics

Factory Blues

I've got those workin' in the factory blues
My soul's slowly dying and my spirit is too
My minds the only thing that belongs to me

Come every Friday when it rolls around
We all get together and we go to town
And we listen to the latest hits from Tennessee

Someone buys a round or two
We spend our times playing pool
Or telling big lies about who we're gonna be

Evening brings the ladies in
Big spenders they start to spend
And we spill our hearts to a jukebox melody

Chorus:

Don't you know I'm feeling those factory blues
Got the pain from my head clean down to my shoes
Knowin' no one will remember me when I'm gone
Lord give me the strength to carry on

In comes Peggy Sue and Pam
I invite them over to where I am
Peggy declines but Pam decides to stay

I tell her how fine she looks tonight
She says, "Thanks. " And I say, "That's alright."
And we get up to dance when the band begins to play

We leave the place in each other's arms
It seems we've fallen for each other's charms
People like us don't have a lot to lose

She's just lost her self respect
Means more to me than she'll ever suspect
'Cos 'till Monday I've lost those working in the factory blues.
