Theyre Tearin The Labor Camps Down

they’re tearin’ the labor camps down E A E i came back to california cause my home was here B E to look up my old sweetheart just for fun A E mom and dad had both passed on in two short years B E while my patriotic chores bein done i saw changes all around me and some were good but i hardly recognized my side of town they tore down the swingin’ casing from the cottowood and that tree was all that marked familar ground . Chorus : E A E oh , they’re tearin’ the labor camps down G# C#m and i feel a little sentimental shame A E where’s a working man gonna live at in this town B E oh , they’re tearin’ the labor camps down . the hilltop family market had been moved somewhere and the name was changed to fit the newer homes the things that i remember were no longer there and the cabin that my Daddy built was gone .
