[Verse 1]
I've got some things to say about the American way
And a trap I'm afraid we're all gonna fall down into
If you need a job done, they'll take your money and run
Too many folks don't give a damn if they help you
[Verse 2]
Now don't y'all get me wrong, this is not a judgment song
You know I've hurt a lot of folks myself along the way
But as I go from town to town I see the same thing going down
They don't give a damn about the job but they do about the pay
[Chorus]
Give a damn about your job, don't you let the devil rob
Take pride in anything that you sign your name to
Let's forget about the bankers, let's try to help our neighbors
America, I'm askin' you to give a damn
[Verse 3]
They used to give you thirty days if you had a bill to pay
But now they wanna get the money fast as they can
Well, that's all right with me, if it's like it's supposed to be
But too many times it ain't and they just don't give a damn
[Chorus]
Give a damn about your job don't you let the devil rob
Take pride in anything that you sign your name to
Well forget about the banker and try to help your neighbor
America, I'm askin' you to give a damn
I've got some things to say about the American way
And a trap I'm afraid we're all gonna fall down into
If you need a job done, they'll take your money and run
Too many folks don't give a damn if they help you
[Verse 2]
Now don't y'all get me wrong, this is not a judgment song
You know I've hurt a lot of folks myself along the way
But as I go from town to town I see the same thing going down
They don't give a damn about the job but they do about the pay
[Chorus]
Give a damn about your job, don't you let the devil rob
Take pride in anything that you sign your name to
Let's forget about the bankers, let's try to help our neighbors
America, I'm askin' you to give a damn
[Verse 3]
They used to give you thirty days if you had a bill to pay
But now they wanna get the money fast as they can
Well, that's all right with me, if it's like it's supposed to be
But too many times it ain't and they just don't give a damn
[Chorus]
Give a damn about your job don't you let the devil rob
Take pride in anything that you sign your name to
Well forget about the banker and try to help your neighbor
America, I'm askin' you to give a damn
