Now we both know you got no money
At the top of the stairs
But I had to learn for myself
I heard your footsteps at the front door
You was looking for a bargain
And you said, "They'll never change a thing
Oh, you was my hero
But I left you on the debris
Well, they won't fight and they're not working"
I went there and back
And I wonder what you would have done
You were sorting through the odds and ends
There's more trouble at the depot
'Cause you knew you'd find me waiting there
And I know how far it is
With the general workers union
And that old familiar love song
And you, you tried to tell me
How you are my good friend
Just to see how far it was
I've been there and back
