Three and A Half Letters Lyrics
I'm 37 years old
Married to my childhood sweet heart
Two beautiful girls
2 and a half and 4
Worked 9 years the plant my father worked
And his father before him
I have a BA but laid off 7 months ago
It's been tough like so many others
But I still believe
Can you help me brother?
Can you help?
I need a job, I need a job
I'm willin' to work
But I need a job
I stand in the street
With a sign in my hands
But I need the work
Yea I need a job
Yeah
I just returned from Afghanistan
Spent 4 years in the military service
I'm 24, strong and I can't find work in my hometown
Married with one beautiful son
7 months old today
Never had the chance to buy a home
Can't afford the apartment we've been living in
Moving in with Debbie's parents
Whose home is now in foreclosure
Can you help?
I need a job, I need a job
I'm willin' to work
But I need a job
I stand in the streets
With a sign in my hands
I'm willin' to work
But I need a job
Yeah
I'm sorry this letter is hand written
But I don't have a computer
I don't have access to one
I'm 51 years old
I lost my wife to breast cancer
3 years ago
Lost my job of 26 years 1 year later
I'm homeless with no one to turn to
I've been through a lot brother
I heard you like to help people
Well, I need help
YEA, I need a job, I need a job
I'm willin' to work
But I need a job
I stand in the streets
With a sign in my hands
I'm willin' to work
But I need a job
I got it, lost it all
Gotta get back to
Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero
I need a job
Yeah, I need a job
I need a job
And the last letter said
I'm 9 years old and homeless
FUCK!
