Westbound train from DC Slept right through the night Woke up in Ohio With the early specs of light There's ghost towns on this railway Right off to the side There's a million empty houses The place where a city died Clinton wasn't the first one To take the jobs away Riding the train through Gary The remnants still remain The rusty broken factories The streets just barley paved Reality is nothing like The promises they made They told us all of progress That soon it would reverse It's been too many years now, And it's only getting worse The steel plant pumps the smoke out Skeletons walk the road The Amtrak doesn't stop here But it runs by pretty slow All these towns are gone now They only keep their names And looking further eastward, yeah It only stays the same From Illinois to Maryland The poverty has spread Left the pockets of the poor all filled With caps of heroin The streets are busy with the self-employed They sling and sing for change The only things left running Are the sirens and the trains They told us all of progress That soon it would reverse It's been too many years now, And it's only getting worse They call this place the Rust Belt This length of broken homes Where the exploitation of working people Started long ago It's so far from the glamor Yet so close to the fame But the only it's known for Is it's tolerance of pain Looking back on history, We we're always underpaid It's a testing ground for a system based On unrestricted trade First you give employment Then you build up trust Then you flee with the profits And leave the rest to rust They told us all of progress That soon it would reverse It's been too many years now, And it's only getting worse
