lyrics

High on the hog, sawing a log
Dreaming of that sweet Mary J
The feds on the hill made em late on their bills
When they tore up those crops again

What do they expect folks to do
When they sent all their jobs away
Ain't much of a life for the kids and the wife
Working for minimum wage

Chorus
Outsourced blues, outsourced blues
Heard all about it on the evening news
When you go out to do your shopping
Whatcha gonna choose
Your neighbor's job or the outsourced blues

Up around four, shot out the door
New batch of hope in hand
The load in his pack may be rough on the back
But it's sure nice working the land

Guess when you strip it all away
It runs so much deeper than the pay
It's tough to feel free, when you've lost your dignity
While the rich get rich every day

Chorus
