[00:20.12]
[00:20.87] My belt buckle's from the Amazon
[00:22.93]
[00:25.74] You know, this shirt I wear comes from the Philippines
[00:29.29] And the car I drive is a Chevrolet
[00:31.66]
[00:34.60] It was put together down in Argentina
[00:36.78]
[00:38.15] By a guy making thirty cents a day.
[00:40.90]
[00:43.52] Well, it's sundown on the union
[00:46.52]
[00:47.39] And what's made in the USA
[00:50.14]
[00:51.20] Sure was a good idea
[00:53.69]
[00:54.63] 'Til greed got in the way.
[00:59.37]
[01:07.36] Well, this silk dress is from Hong Kong
[01:09.79]
[01:10.48] And the pearls are from Japan

[01:21.96]
[01:25.02] All the furniture it said "Made in Brazil"
[01:28.02]
[01:28.58] Where a woman, she slaved for sure
[01:31.06]
[01:34.36] Bringing home thirty cents a day to a family of twelve
[01:38.23] You know, that's a lot of money to her.
[01:40.42]
[01:42.60] Well, it's sundown on the union
[01:45.53]
[01:46.28] And what's made in the USA
[01:48.40]
[01:50.21] Sure was a good idea
[01:52.65]
[01:53.71] 'Til greed got in the way.
[01:57.64]
[02:06.06] Well, you know, lots of people complaining that there is no work
[02:09.43] I say, "Why you say that for
[02:11.99]
[02:14.86] When nothing you got is US made ?"
[02:17.98] They don't make nothing here no more
[02:20.10]
[02:23.53] You know, capitalism is above the law
[02:26.28]
[02:27.15] It say, "it don't count 'less it sells"
[02:29.84]
[02:32.46] When it costs too much to build it at home
[02:35.97] You just build it cheaper someplace else.
[02:38.72]
[02:41.46] Well, it's sundown on the union
[02:44.02]
[02:44.89] And what's made in the USA
[02:47.51]
[02:48.76] Sure was a good idea
[02:51.07]
[02:52.26] 'Til greed got in the way.
[02:55.99]
[03:04.79] Well, the job that you used to have
[03:07.10]
[03:07.72] They gave it to somebody down in El Salvador
[03:10.66]
[03:13.34] The unions are big business, friend
[03:16.77] And they're going out like a dinosaur
[03:19.39]
[03:22.02] They used to grow food in Kansas
[03:24.64]
[03:25.20] Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw
[03:28.62]
[03:31.12] I can see the day coming when even your home garden
[03:34.31]
[03:34.93] Is gonna be against the law.
[03:36.62]
[03:39.42] Well, it's sundown on the union
[03:42.17]
[03:43.04] And what's made in the USA
[03:45.73]
[03:46.85] Sure was a good idea
[03:49.22]
[03:50.28] 'Til greed got in the way.
[03:55.02]
[03:55.77] Democracy don't rule the world
[04:04.50]
[04:05.19] You'd better get that in your head
[04:07.75]
[04:11.50] This world is ruled by violence
[04:13.74]
[04:14.37] But I guess that's better left unsaid
[04:16.61]
[04:20.48] From Broadway to the Milky Way
[04:23.22] That's a lot of territory indeed
[04:25.29]
[04:29.16] And a man's gonna do what he has to do
[04:32.28] When he's got a hungry mouth to feed.
[04:34.96]
[04:37.64] Well, it's sundown on the union
[04:40.20]
[04:41.14] And what's made in the USA
[04:43.70]
[04:44.88] Sure was a good idea
[04:47.25]
[04:48.31] 'Til greed got in the way.
