Well we're living here in Allentown And they're closing all the factories down Out in Bethlehem they're killing time Filling out forms Standing in line Well our fathers fought the Second World War Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore Met our mothers in the USO Asked them to dance Danced with them slow And we're living here in AllentownBut the restlessness was handed down And it's getting very hard to stayWell we're waiting here in Allentown For the Pennsylvania we never found For the promises our teachers gave If we worked hard If we behavedSo the graduations hang on the wall But they never really helped us at all No they never taught us what was real Iron and coal And chromium steel And we're waiting here in AllentownBut they've taken all the coal from the ground And the union people crawled awayEvery child has a pretty good shot To get at least as far as their old man got But something happened on the way to that place They threw an American flag in our placeWell I'm living here in Allentown And it's hard to keep a good man down But I won't be giving up todayAnd we're living here in Allentown
