What Am I Supposed To Do (Live 2024)

Hired on back in 85
February 28
They stuck me on the midnight shift
it became a job that i loved to hate

met a girl and we said our vows
tried for a kid, ended up with two
now it seems if they're shuttin' this town down 
What am I supposed to do

What am I supposed to do Lord
What am I supposed to do
when this is all i have ever known
what am i supposed to do

I reside on the northeast side
where the family settled back in 33
I sold the car just to save the house
it's gettin' hard to hold on to anything

well them union boys they made some noise
in the end they had to feed their families too
them dues are paid they can't help me now
so what am i supposed to do

What am I supposed to do Lord
What am I supposed to do
when this is all i have ever known
what am i supposed to do

I sit by as the city slowly dies
and I wonder about my fate 
all the sympathy on the evenin' news
I've had about all that i can take

I'm 45 and I've got no place to hide
I've got nothing left to lose
Is this what I get after all that I gave
What am I supposed to do

What am I supposed to do Lord
What am I supposed to do
when this is all i have ever known
what am i supposed to do

What am I supposed to do Lord
What am I supposed to do
when this is all i have ever known
what am i supposed to do
