Steve Madewell - I Know That I Need You

I Know That I Need You

All my joints are aching
From standing on the floor
Lucky that I have a job
I don’t know what I’m working for

They hardly pay me anything
I don’t know what to do
I don’t need much money
I know that I need you

New man got in the office
Said we needed change
Make the country great again
Now it will never be the same

I wished I’d seen this coming
But we chose what to believe
I worked that line for 30 years
I guess the jokes on me

Headed back from Youngstown
They closed down the shop
Nearly lost all that we had
While GM bought their stock

Movin’ back to your mothers’
Caused we have no place to stay
Seems like what we left behind
Is a 1000 miles away

Maybe we can start again
And get this turned around
I’m 51 years old today
I can’t stand to see you down.

Maybe I can try and find
A different point of view
I don’t need much money
But I know that I need you.

I don’t need much money
I just know that I need you.
