Billy came by this morning
And we could tell there was something wrong
He said the union called him
We stay together and we'll be strong
We'll be strong

Gonna shut down this factory town
There ain't gonna be no work around
They're gonna shut down this factory town
And I don't know how long we can hold on
Before it's gone

Now I don't know the problems
I just work hard on the line
And I don't know the owner
The whistle blows at quitting time
And now I find

Gonna shut down this factory town
There ain't gonna be no work around
They're gonna shut down this factory town
And I don't know how long, we can hold on

They say it's too late to talk it over (yeah)
That's the word out on the street
Now I don't have any answers
But if we don't work, we don't eat

They're gonna shut down this factory town
There ain't gonna be no work around
They're gonna shut down this factory town
And I don't know how long, we can hold on

They're gonna shut down
They're gonna shut down this factory town
And I don't know how long, we can hold on
