Dropkick Murphys - 10 Years of Service lyrics
[Dropkick Murphys - 10 Years of Service lyrics]
The status of our future in
Both past and present time
Is relegated to a member of
A higher class than mine
To determine and direct the lives of
Family men who bear the burden
Of living up to standard that
Doesn't exist in 1999
Who's gonna save us from
This lonely picket line?
Ten years of service but I'm
Still not worth your time
Times may be changing but I'll
Never leave behind the hopes
And thoughts I have of better days
For families such as mine
Because if history repeats it'self and
Time will surely tell
What goes around's gonna come around and
You'll know our pain too well
Who's gonna save us from
This lonely picket line?
Ten years of service but I'm
Still not worth your time
And I've seen men give their lives and
Heard the stories that they tell
Of how they labored for this company
Which sold it's soul to hell
The status of our future in
Both past and present time
Is relegated to a member of
A higher class than mine
To determine and direct the lives of
Family men who bear the burden
Of living up to standard that
Doesn't exist in 1999
Who's gonna save us from
This lonely picket line?
Ten years of service but I'm
Still not worth your time
And I've seen men give their lives and
Heard the stories that they tell
Of how they labored for this company
Which sold it's soul to hell
Both past and present time
Is relegated to a member of
A higher class than mine
To determine and direct the lives of
Family men who bear the burden
Of living up to standard that
Doesn't exist in 1999
Who's gonna save us from
This lonely picket line?
Ten years of service but I'm
Still not worth your time
Times may be changing but I'll
Never leave behind the hopes
And thoughts I have of better days
For families such as mine
Because if history repeats it'self and
Time will surely tell
What goes around's gonna come around and
You'll know our pain too well
Who's gonna save us from
This lonely picket line?
Ten years of service but I'm
Still not worth your time
And I've seen men give their lives and
Heard the stories that they tell
Of how they labored for this company
Which sold it's soul to hell
The status of our future in
Both past and present time
Is relegated to a member of
A higher class than mine
To determine and direct the lives of
Family men who bear the burden
Of living up to standard that
Doesn't exist in 1999
Who's gonna save us from
This lonely picket line?
Ten years of service but I'm
Still not worth your time
And I've seen men give their lives and
Heard the stories that they tell
Of how they labored for this company
Which sold it's soul to hell
