Williams Jr., Hank - Red, White & Pink Slip Blues Lyrics






I used to love this town and this neighborhood
The streets were safe, the schools were good
The mill was hummin' twenty-four seven
I was formin' on the line, three to eleven
But eighteen months, two days ago
The Mill closed down and moved to Mexico

I payed my bills, I payed my dues
I payed my share of taxes too
Now I cant buy my baby shoes
Ive got the red, white, pink-slip blues

I hide the pickup truck in Ricky Browns garage
Over on the next block, cause there's Repo's to dodge
I slip out the back door Lord, I never thought Id live to see this day
Where gonna need that truck when they come to take the house away

You know I love my country and I'm not one to complain
But there's a lot of us that feel like we've been left out here
Out in the rain

I payed my bills, I payed my dues
I payed my share of taxes too
Now I cant buy my little baby shoes

    Don't worry Hank. I have no problem firing down field. They are hundreds just like me. They pick a fight they shall have!

  5. T.... B....

    Funny reading these comments written before Trump got rolling. Now unemployment is at record lows and Companies are flooding back.

  9. J.... S....

    Is Congress and Senate looking after your best interest or the global corporations bestis bringing in millions of illegal aliens or even legal aliens to take your jobs your welfare York public housing your medical care is that in your best interest is forcing you to support hundreds of millions of aliens on welfare in your best interest

  10. J.... S....

    The only war the American people should be fighting is against the puppet government of Congress and Senate and even the supreme Court. They've declared war on the American and damn near wiped out the American. if a foreign government had done to the American people with the congress senate supreme Court had done. Every American would be in arms. And the American enemy would wiped out.

  11. L.... F....

    Love you my brother and God bless you and family from dunseith ND Native American Chippewa quartell 💯⚜🔱ms13

  12. V.... F....

    Let's start a go fund me to bring back American motors corporation

    You'd need to speak to Fiat/Chrysler about that as I assume all the copyrights are theirs. Imagine telling a mechanic back in the late 70's that in 35 Years AMC will be owned by the Italians? And it'll be Fiat - Sister company to Ferrari. But don't worry: the AMC name will be phased out a decade prior. They'd have a nervous breakdown. Or buy more metric tools.

  13. E.... G....

    Great song hank Williams jr songs true American songs

  14. C.... M....

    Proud and glad to be non-union. Wake up folks, your commie unions won't help you or never be there for you in the end. The only thing anyone will end up with is a severance package with the liquids pouring out the gaping rear.

  15. R.... P....

    hell yeah Bocephus tell him

  16. S.... H....

    Thank god for President Trump.

  17. B.... I....

    I always wonder how some American companies like Ariat or what GM has turned into, can call themselves proudly American, all while making their products in China and Vietnam because paying quasi slaves cents per hour instead of decent wages to American workers is their priority

  18. C.... R....

    Gonna find

  19. C.... R....

    Guideline common commits in a longer dents can so park that way

  20. C.... R....

    It's just lol kill

  21. C.... R....

    Nobody puts these guys down 😎

  22. D.... W....

    Beautiful song. I am a huge HWJ fan and this is the first time I heard it. It speaks to the total sell out of middle America by the rich, greedy, and lifeless who have no loyalty to anything but money. The faces in the video are heart wrenching.

  23. H.... ....

    After no play on radio or tv BOCEPHUS is still #1. This is real country music not like this crap now.

  24. 3.... G....

    Thank God Trump is bring them jobs back

  33. D.... R....

    worry about americe..fuck china and japan....we can live again.....thank great god trump

  42. T.... R....

    Really like how at the end, he says we’re talking to the politicians. Hell yeah it’s mainly them for the way this country is now. They ain’t working for you. They are just in office to benefit themselves from lobbyists and special interest groups. Tell me how a congress member goes in for a 5 figure salary and retires a multi millionaire. They ain’t nothing but a bunch of crooks and thieves. Should have term limits on them people.

  43. J.... R....

    As he's driving a 75k caddilac and wearing 500 dollar sunglasses.

    J.... R....

    He did say he wasn't one to complain... then the follows the support of the subject matter

  44. E.... P....

    Dam good song

  45. R.... 2....

    Hank is a democrat and very sad he is on that side.. he sings this song like he is a real American. He is a sell out to everything that is American. Shameful. My favorite song writer singer is a complete sell out to the United States of America

  46. S.... M....

    Bocephus! I'm diggin' this tune!

  47. B.... P....

    The LORD put President Trump in office to fix these problems. People we are all gonna be ok. No worries.

  48. B.... P....

    I work hard love JESUS and, take care of my family to the best that I can and them some. This song hurts to see and hear but it's truth. People wake up.

  49. T.... K....

    Love your Cadillac Hank

  50. M.... A....

    Have to be a productive and  working American not living off taxpayers to understand this song...

  51. R.... G....

    I can't see why anyone affected by this song would not go to the Polls in 2020 and re-elect Trump, and bring as many people along with you  While he's not the most likeable guy in many ways, he's about Security and US Jobs .  The trade war which will be painful is in the long run good for us (since we are currently on the loosing end of our trade deals) and our politicians (both sides of the isle) have found it easier to appease the foreign interests rather than take a tough stand.  He's got billions, he doesn't need any more money, he probably doesn't have a ton of friends so he doesn't need to make them rich either.  I think he sees what the media doesn't want to show us, that is the USA paying the tab for everyone internationally and at home with 20 million undocumented immigrants getting social benefits and generally not paying taxes.

  52. B.... S....

    Nice drop top

  53. G.... P....

    Old Ricky Brown has passed away now and the truck farm is just a memory !!!! RIP. Ricky Brown ✌🏻😎✌🏻. From a old friend !!!

  58. C.... P....

  68. J.... D....

    This is what wrong with American today. We are moving all the good paying jobs cross the ocean or down to Mexico. I had a good job at Gunderson making rail cars and the now part are made some were so i got moved out to make ocean going barge and doing great work out there then the economy took hit so they laid off 2,500 guys and ladies and said if pickup we would get are old jobs back but they never called us back because we make to much money and they could bring 2 guys or ladies to due my job and it sucks because I was making great money back then

  69. C.... R....

    This video is so fucking lame

  70. N.... Y....

    FUCK NAFTA! BRING OUR JOBS BACK!

  71. r.... ....

    Guess what Hank? Native American Indians are enjoying you all singing about this shit! White people took our land away from us 200 years ago! Now its your turn..... We are sitting back with our casinos and own governments watching you and your Nashville buddies singnig your little songs. By the way, What a funny and Fucked up song titled Pink Slip blues! My name is Rich "Choocher" McCready. I am 1/2 Choctaw and 1/4 Cherokee .... I was on Magnatone Records in the 90's. Curb owns my material and masters now. Pink Slip Blues will never see the Top 40... Has no soul.... Sean Hannity might put it on his show but the song is weak and the hook is weaker. If you really want to write a strong song about what is happening right now? Call me or don't. I am coming out with my own material that will blow the top off of anything Nashville has..... Pink Slip Blues? Is this the same person who wrote Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound? Really? Thats it? Pink Slip Blues? Wow.... Once again... my peoples are sitting back enjoying the country singers finally singing the blues....RM..... CHOOCH

  72. S.... F....
