Wayward Sons

I’ll pay you for a hamburger next Tuesday
Getting rid of consignment there must be a way
without baiting a bull in a china shop
Free trade and American made
Quit giving your freedoms to someone else
Quality or quantity is there anything else
Fiat money will only give you time
and maybe a job to dig your own grave
that is if they have not given it away
Look to the days of isolationism
when things were American made
for America is in a global market
and should never be marketed away
if you cannot see where things went wrong
then stand your ground and open your eyes
for the answers can be found
and it is not between vanity and insanity
as humbling, as it seems. Pray and follow the Way
