text: Its closing time the boys are all together at the bar
  Staring in their glasses
  Looks like another layoff at the yard
  Yesterday I heard union hall come down
  They hit it with a wrecking ball
  And they try but nothing changes in this town
  Cap in hand stood in line
  Your family ties are the chains that bind
  The endless wheel goes round and round
  Chances are youll never leave this town
  Oh oh no
  Like a river now the empty streets are flooded out with rain
  Its falling on the playground
  While the kids get wet playing the same old games
  Locked away so many things remind them of war
  They tap the pavement with their canes
  The good old days aint so good no more
