Main St. Blues




old man by the side of the road
picking up cans as he goes
got another good load

couple more will fill his bin
might buy that medicine
thank God for these old cans

And Down on Main St. they're looking for relief
as the house of cards comes down
No golden parachute could be found
for the little people in the little towns

heavily invested in
stocks that he thought would win
now he gathers tin

lost his 401k
he's sure seen better days
and Wall St. don't repay.

And Down on Main St. they're looking for relief
as the house of cards comes down
No golden parachute could be found
for the little people in the little towns


U.S backed subprime surety
based on his social security
nothing down no closing fee

He's camping at the KOA
since they took his house away
he's a mortgage lenders prey

And Down on Main St. they're looking for relief
as the house of cards comes down
No golden parachute could be found
for the little people in the little towns
