Kid Rock - The Midwest Fall lyrics
[Kid Rock - The Midwest Fall lyrics]
Listen to the wind, lonesome is the sound
Blowing in changes and breaking
Through this town listen to the heartbeat
Heartland's barely breathing
Hope and faith are still alive
But jobs are steady leaving
It chills me to the bone
Brings a tear to my eye
Like the last days of summer gone
It's hard to watch a good thing die
In the days of my youth there
Was dancing in the streets
Ford was building motorcars and
Folks were building dreams
'Round the clock, day and night
Working hard's a way of life as I recall
It chills me to the bone
Brings a tear to my eye
Like the last days of summer gone
It's hard to watch a good thing die
It's the Midwest fall, blue collar life
Staring at December, dreaming about July
The Midwest fall, dreams get blown away
It's hard to take the Midwest fall
My grandpa was a union man
My daddy watched it burn we never had a lot
We lived off what we earned
We built the cars and tanks that
Helped to keep our nation free
And now I can't afford to feed my family
It chills me to the bone
Brings a tear to my eye
Like the last days of summer gone
It's hard to watch a good thing die
It's the Midwest fall, blue collar life
Staring at December, dreaming about July
The Midwest fall, dreams get blown away
It's hard to take the Midwest fall, oh
Oh yeah
I can't pay my taxes, Lord
I can't afford to feed my kids
I guess I'll stay and ride it out
Because you are so beautiful, yeah
The Midwest fall, blue collar life
Staring at December, dreaming about July
The Midwest fall, dreams get blown away
It's hard to take
The Midwest fall, oh, don't go away
The Midwest fall, dreamin', dreamin'
The Midwest fall, ah, don't go away
It's hard to take
Please don't go away you are so beautiful
The Midwest fall the Midwest fall
The Midwest fall the Midwest fall
Blowing in changes and breaking
Through this town listen to the heartbeat
Heartland's barely breathing
Hope and faith are still alive
But jobs are steady leaving
It chills me to the bone
Brings a tear to my eye
Like the last days of summer gone
It's hard to watch a good thing die
In the days of my youth there
Was dancing in the streets
Ford was building motorcars and
Folks were building dreams
'Round the clock, day and night
Working hard's a way of life as I recall
It chills me to the bone
Brings a tear to my eye
Like the last days of summer gone
It's hard to watch a good thing die
It's the Midwest fall, blue collar life
Staring at December, dreaming about July
The Midwest fall, dreams get blown away
It's hard to take the Midwest fall
My grandpa was a union man
My daddy watched it burn we never had a lot
We lived off what we earned
We built the cars and tanks that
Helped to keep our nation free
And now I can't afford to feed my family
It chills me to the bone
Brings a tear to my eye
Like the last days of summer gone
It's hard to watch a good thing die
It's the Midwest fall, blue collar life
Staring at December, dreaming about July
The Midwest fall, dreams get blown away
It's hard to take the Midwest fall, oh
Oh yeah

Because you are so beautiful, yeah
The Midwest fall, blue collar life
Staring at December, dreaming about July
The Midwest fall, dreams get blown away
It's hard to take
The Midwest fall, oh, don't go away
The Midwest fall, dreamin', dreamin'
The Midwest fall, ah, don't go away
It's hard to take
Please don't go away you are so beautiful
The Midwest fall the Midwest fall
The Midwest fall the Midwest fall
