Blue Collar - GilScott-Heron[00:00:00]
I been down in Pennsylvania[00:00:22]
Where I was working in the mine[00:00:26]
And I been down in Cincinnati[00:00:33]
They laid me off the assembly line[00:00:37]
Yeah they got me looking everywhere[00:00:43]
But I ain't too proud of what I found[00:00:47]
And you can't name where I ain't been down[00:00:53]
'Cause there ain't no place I ain't been down[00:00:58]
I was down in Kansas City[00:01:05]
Where even the blues sell by the pound[00:01:08]
And I been down in New York City brother[00:01:15]
And that ain't no place to be down[00:01:19]
Yeah I'm a-looking at the face of the children[00:01:26]
You see we're looking for a higher ground[00:01:29]
And you can't name where we ain't been down[00:01:35]
'Cause there ain't no place we ain't been down[00:01:40]
We fell down somewhere[00:01:46]
Between the cities and the towns[00:01:51]
We went down I know[00:01:57]
Between the smiles and the frowns[00:02:02]
And if they call me in the morning[00:02:08]
I mean I'd recognize the sound[00:02:12]
'Cause you can't name where we ain't been down[00:02:17]
There ain't no place we ain't been down[00:02:23]
Standing in the shadows[00:03:12]
It sho'nuff sure enough looks like rain[00:03:16]
I see the steel-gray clouds above me[00:03:22]
Yeah well the anguish and the pain[00:03:26]
Yeah I been looking everywhere for peace[00:03:33]
But I swear there just ain't none around[00:03:36]
But you can't name where I ain't been down[00:03:42]
'Cause there ain't no place I ain't been down[00:03:47]
We been down[00:03:53]
Between the cities and the towns[00:03:57]
Yeah been down somewhere[00:04:03]
Between the smiles and the frowns[00:04:08]
And if they call me in the morning[00:04:15]
I mean I'd recognize the sound[00:04:19]
'Cause you can't name where I ain't been down[00:04:24]
There ain't no place I ain't been down[00:04:29]
