Deplorables
There's nothing keeping us here
We've gotta get out of this place
Yeah all our cupboards are bare
We've gotta go save our own grace
I know my hands are skilled, they're made to build,
And out there I will find
A job to fill in a local mill where I will not be declined
Off we go into the unknown with courage on our side
For a home to call our own where we will never need to hide
We're on our way to a new and brighter day
There's nothing keeping us back, we are the ones that got away
We're underdogs, down but we're not out
The ones your elders someday soon will tell you all about
We'll have to make a new name
It's time to rewrite the game
Our sons and daughters in time
Will know the price that we've paid
So we made it on the manifest and now we can behold
The gift of freedom to forge a life, a journey to unfold
Off we go into the unknown with courage on our side
A home to call our own where we will never need to hide
We're on our way to a new and brighter day
There's nothing keeping us back, we are the ones that got away
We're underdogs, down but we're not out
The ones your elders someday soon will tell you all about
We're on our way (We're on our way)
Yes, we're on our way (We're on our way)
We're on our way (We're on our way)
Yes, We're on our way (We're on our way)
We're on our way to a new and brighter day
There's nothing keeping us back, we are the ones that got away
We're underdogs, down but we're not out
The ones your elders someday soon will tell you all about
We've gotta get out of this place
Yeah all our cupboards are bare
We've gotta go save our own grace
I know my hands are skilled, they're made to build,
And out there I will find
A job to fill in a local mill where I will not be declined
Off we go into the unknown with courage on our side
For a home to call our own where we will never need to hide
We're on our way to a new and brighter day
There's nothing keeping us back, we are the ones that got away
We're underdogs, down but we're not out
The ones your elders someday soon will tell you all about
We'll have to make a new name
It's time to rewrite the game
Our sons and daughters in time
Will know the price that we've paid
So we made it on the manifest and now we can behold
The gift of freedom to forge a life, a journey to unfold
Off we go into the unknown with courage on our side
A home to call our own where we will never need to hide
We're on our way to a new and brighter day
There's nothing keeping us back, we are the ones that got away
We're underdogs, down but we're not out
The ones your elders someday soon will tell you all about
We're on our way (We're on our way)
Yes, we're on our way (We're on our way)
We're on our way (We're on our way)
Yes, We're on our way (We're on our way)
We're on our way to a new and brighter day
There's nothing keeping us back, we are the ones that got away
We're underdogs, down but we're not out
The ones your elders someday soon will tell you all about
