Hogkill Blues Lyrics & Tabs by Charlie Parr
Hogkill Blues
guitar chords lyrics
I'm waitin' for my dad,
I'm waitin' for my dad,
I'm waiting by the tunnel of the plant today, but he's gone good lord he's gone.
Those union boys have left the line,
Those union boys have left the line,
They walked out of the plant today, they're standing at the gate.
The Governor sent the National Guard,
The Governor sent the National Guard,
The Guard came out to beat 'em down, but they stood good lord their ground.
Mama said they'd be alright,
Mama said they'd be alright,
I cried out for my dad today, and she stayed in my room all night.
The freeway's littered with trash,
That freeway's littered with trash,
Pulled a 16 penny nail out of my tire last night, got a window of broken glass.
The freeway's littered with trash,
That freeway's littered with trash,
Pulled a 16 penny nail out of my tire last night, got a window of broken glass.
My working shoes are combat boots,
My working shoes are combat boots,
We stood toe to toe on the street today,?????
Well the end came overnight,
Well the end came overnight,
From behind the desk they called us down, he said "Why don't you guys go back inside..."
Then we talked about the news,
Then we talked about the news,
Cuttin' down hogs where we mourn our loss, was wonderin' who the enemy was.
I'm waitin' for my dad,
Well I'm waitin' for my dad,
I'm waiting by the tunnel of the plant today, but he's gone good lord he's...
