Crystal **** and Mountain Dew You got me and I got you Whoa boy Whoa girl Sitting around Nothing to do Who needs glue When I got you Whoa boy Whoa girl You wear jammies I wear jeans When we go shopping at our Hy-Vee Whoa boy Whoa girl We had our jobs Health insurance, too Now they’re gone What do you do? Whoa Whoa 3 bars closed, We’re down to one But that’s okay Cause I got you Whoa boy Whoa girl Winter’s coming It’s getting dark Propane’s empty The car won’t start Whoa boy Whoa girl Copyright © 2019 by Zane Safrit.

Rough, very rough draft. Life in rural, midwestern areas is rough, very rough. Jobs are gone, communities dying, hospitals closing... Corporate Ag ruins the air and water and lives of all it touches. Anyway...
