Well we're living here in Allentown[00:00:50]

And they're closing all the factories down[00:00:54]

Out in Bethlehem they're killing time[00:00:58]

Filling out forms[00:01:02]

Standing in line[00:01:04]

Well our fathers fought the Second World War[00:01:07]

Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore[00:01:11]

Met our mothers in the USO[00:01:15]

Asked them to dance[00:01:19]

Danced with them slow[00:01:21]

And we're living here in Allentown[00:01:23]

But the restlessness was handed down[00:01:28]

And it's getting very hard to stay[00:01:32]

Well we're waiting here in Allentown[00:01:50]

For the Pennsylvania we never found[00:01:54]

For the promises our teachers gave[00:01:59]

If we worked hard[00:02:02]

If we behaved[00:02:04]

So the graduations hang on the wall[00:02:07]

But they never really helped us at all[00:02:11]

No they never taught us what was real[00:02:15]

Iron and coke[00:02:19]

And chromium steel[00:02:21]

And we're waiting here in Allentown[00:02:24]

But they've taken all the coal from the ground[00:02:28]

And the union people crawled away[00:02:32]

Every child had a pretty good shot[00:02:46]

To get at least as far as their old man got[00:02:49]

But something happened on the way to that place[00:02:53]

They threw an American flag in our face[00:02:58]

Well living here in AllentownI'm[00:03:12]

And it's hard to keep a good man down[00:03:16]

But I won't be getting up today[00:03:20]

And it's getting very hard to stay[00:03:24]

And we're living here in Allentown[00:04:00]
