lyrics

Rust belt, that's where I live
Rust belt, I got no shits to give
Rust belt blues, around my neck
Rust belt blues

I got a rust belt momma, she's thick as a tree
Rust belt momma, sitting here on my knee
Rust belt momma, never satisfies me
Rust belt momma

Hear my frustration
See my dissipation
A private hell is waiting
From total oxidation

I'm a rust belt loser, got no place to work
Rust belt loser, just pants and a shirt
Rust belt loser, driven into the dirt
Rust belt loser

Hear my frustration
See my dissipation
A private hell is waiting
From total oxidation

I was born in the rust belt
He's got the belt blues
I was born in the rust belt
He's got the belt blues
I was born in the rust belt
He's got the belt blues
I was born in the rust belt
He's got the belt blues

Hear my frustration
See my dissipation
A private hell is waiting
From total oxidation

Hear my frustration
See my dissipation
A private hell is waiting
From total oxidation
