Labor Day

Appears on: Under The Powerlines

Lyrics

It’s the unofficial end of summer
From the most official source around
Get ready for fall
Pumpkin spice, y’all
It’s about to be the big first down
It’s the back-to-school
Labor Day sale
Down at the John Smith
Honda, Buick, GMC
Mitsubishi, Ford, Chevrolet, Hyundai
Get down and spend some money

But I hope that you had a nice summer
And I hope that you’re done wearin’ white
And I hope that your fall ain’t a bummer
Hope your schoolin’ goes alright
It’s Labor Day

Way back, back in 1890 and 4
Grover Cleveland signed it in to law
Said, “This is your federally allocated state mandated
Summer’s last hurrah!”
See, he had to cool it down
Spread some love around
Placate some boycotts and such
‘Cause the folks that were workin’
Were tired of workin’
So doggone daggum much
Listen to em work

But I hope that you had a nice summer
And I hope that you’re done wearin’ white
And I hope that your fall ain’t a bummer
Hope your schoolin’ goes alright
It’s Labor Day
