Down at the bus stop, the cleanin' lady waits in the exhaust and gnats She's growlin' inside that Red Mountain mansion The rabble and the election, the reddenin' face, the sneerin' lip She grinds her teeth on the remains of the smog-choked old-time girls She scrambled over and above The velvet cover on that hard-edged Jones Valley twang starts to slip Don't call her a redneck, she's your sister You ain't no better than her or anybody else When she struggles, you struggle with her If you go against your sister, you go against yourself Skyline goes pink beyond the warehouse wall The crickets start to fiddlin', we grab our puny pay stubs Drag the dyin', achin' day to the truck Down the line, E pulls on his wave cap, pries off his boots Groans and sparks a blunt I can smell the whiskey on Jim's mustache, talkin' that same old junk like Don't call him a thug, he's your brother You ain't no better than him or anybody else When he struggles, you struggle with him If you go against your brother, boy, you go against yourself Ah-ah Don't go against yourself Letras de cancionesDon't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Outside the punk show, down a dark side street In the San Francisco of the Smokies They try to bum a light, he shakes his head, and they shuffle past He smokes and cocks his head at their faded hair-dye and baggy clothes And groans in his Midwestern drone "At least back home, poor people have the dignity to pull up their pants" I'm like, listen here, son Don't call them trash, buddy, they're my kinfolk You ain't no better than them or anybody else When they struggle, you struggle with them If you go against my kinfolk, hoss, you go against yourself Ah-ah Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Like a dog gnawin' off its tail Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Like a saw cuttin' off its cord Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself Like the desperate denyin' the sweet grace of the Lord Don't go against yourself (Don't go) Don't go against yourself (Don't, don't) Don't go against yourself (Oh, don't go) Don't go against yourself (Don't go) Don't go against yourself (Don't go) Don't go against yourself (Oh, please don't go) Don't go against yourself (Don't) Don't go against yourself (Don't go) Don't go against yourself (Please don't go) Don't go against yourself (Oh) Don't go against yourself Don't go against yourself (Please don't go) From Letras Mania
