Lyrics
There is a Tent City goin up in my town Where every other neighbor can be found No more flat screen tv's or video games Policeman there Takin' everybody's name Smell the soup cookin' from an old coffee can an American flag wavin' above an old man I never thought these times were just ahead So many homeless No place to lay their head See the Tent Cities Springin' up all around Doesnt seem to matter where you go In the big cities Or in the small towns Might even be someone there you know Might even be someone there you know Bailouts for bankers and the corporate elite no bailouts for you no bailouts for me I've seen the young and I've seen the old trying to stay warm against the winters' cold They're not bums or lazy losers not druggies Not even boozers just yesterday he had a job And a home Now he's got a tent and he's all alone See the Tent Cities Springin' up all around Doesn't really matter where you go In the big cities Or in the small towns Might even be someone there you know Might even be someone there you know
