Story behind the song
One of the few songs I actually sing on. I wrote this after a frustrating time of trying to reason (for that matter actually talk to) rep and "my" two senators. That's Dale Crockett on Guitar.
Lyrics
Bail Out Blues Guitar: Dale Crockett (scratch vocal-comedy right?) © 2008 Jon Hanson (3:20) Just got robbed by my bank—now billions more for the big three? Golden Parachutes, fast jets and union legacy... We’re helping everyone else—who’s gonna be there for me? I don’t EVEN work at GM; but now I’m paying union dues Whenever congress meets little guys like me lose My Rep won’t represent me—those Senators just keep turning the SCREWS! I got those low down, good for nothin’ –Bail Out Blues Most politicians couldn’t even run a lemonade stand But now they want to run all the auto plants in Michigan They did such a good job with the banks so here we go again Repeat Chorus: Tag: My rep won’t represent me—wish he’d walk a mile in my shoes Cause I got those good for nothin’ Bail Out Blues Cause I got those good for nothin’ Bail Out Blues I am the author of Good Debt, Bad Debt (Penguin 2005, 2007).
