Lyrics:
Give you forty and then some
Whatever it takes
Three dollars and change at the pump
Cost of livin's high and goin' up
Sad thing it's a decade later and this song still rings true today.
Hey how are you doing today?
Got that right bro. God bless
Ain't nothing changing . . . We gotta start a new
Except for 4 good years under Trump
Since consolidation cause me to move back to New England~ I've had four contract jobs, training my replacements- offshoring~ Not so rewarding for US company(Staples twice)
I worked at this Goodyear tire plant for about ten years… It still makes me sad today. I stayed until the last day. Thank you Ronnie Dunn for producing this song.
I'm from Martin. Goodyear closing changed all of northwest Tennessee. Everyone was affected. So sad
From the uk yeah a get this . Left the military picked up a driving job . Bought me a nice car and rented a flat in an okay area . Worked any weekend boss man wanted . 2 months he let me go as his business went under . Watched it all go and didn’t hit home till had to move home and missus left .
I am 40 years old now and in the 15 years through my life had a lot of lay offs from manufacturing it's tough. This song also makes me sad as well been there to many times. Now the last almost 4 years I have work at a garage company long hours every week 67 hours 6 days a week.
I work for tire hub. It used to be Goodyear untill the distribution murger with Firestone... Now it's tire hub
My dad did 20 years at Goodyear tire plant . He told me never waste your life for the big guys . The will just use you then throw you out like trash !
Lost my dad 2 years ago. Played this song at his funeral. Just showed up on my feed. Today's my birthday. Dad's subtle way to say Happy Birthday son.
@@huertta Thanks JC!! Saturday was the two year anniversary. You don't get over it, you get used to it. Had a Red Cardinal land in my back yard Saturday morning. It was another hello.
Happy Belated Birthday! RIP Pops!
Sorry for your lost
Sorry for your loss
@@barbaramatthews3742 Thank you so much.
12 years later now look at the cost of living 😢😢
Man this song is a little motivation to keep on keeping on. Because as a 31 year old single dad of a 8 year old who has worked 60-70 hours since I was 15 years old, sometimes I just want to throw the towel in. This song truly help me to keep going and always put god first. Thank you Ronnie Dunn this hits home today.
Keep up the good fight brother!
Hang in there! I did Three jobs and 30 years later 7 great grandkids it's well worth it
25 2 kids and a wife no one to babysit worked 60+ to save money when I was younger now it’s 60+ to get by
Brother
Rooting for you! Keep pressing forward!
This hits harder then it ever has
Yeah, had ta come back an take a look - FJB
For real
@@RickyBobby615 #lgbfjb
Thank our Pedo president
Tell me about it brother 🇺🇸💥🤍
As a Texas veteran working daily this song is in my head at work often. I'm 30, and can't believe I'm witnessing the death of our nation.
You should be 73 like I am and really see how our country is dying. I'm so worried for my grandkids. People just don't understand what socialism/communism means.😢 😢
I’m 20 y/o and I have a old soul I don’t belong around these people my age no one has respect or morals anymore it’s just sad
Thank you first for serving in the military, and now for continuing to improve our country! We strengthen the things that remain by holding fast and raising a generation of real Americans!
This song was ahead of its time. Blaring it on repeat right now
It was written during part 1 of the take down of America... the same people have come back to finish the job
You ain't kiddin
I shared this on Facebook saying his that
Let’s go Brandon
Not really ahead of it's time... Same clowns around at that time too, but this time has been worse. Still love this song though. Hits home to a lot of hard working people
Thank God for the hard working middle-class American. 🇺🇸
Hey how are you doing today?
I dedicate this song to my husband. He works hard everyday to take care of me and his 2 boys. No matter how cold, how hot, or how bad he feels he does what he has to do to make sure we have a roof over our head and food in our bellies. He served his country in the navy and is just one hell of a man in my eyes. Thumbs up to Ronnie for this song, Thank you I cry everytime i hear it.
God bless him 🙏
That's a wife
thats what daddys do and you and the boys are worth every hurt and tired day -thats a good man you have - and i bet you are a good wife -hard to find either these days
He knows how blessed he is. Fantastic comments, just saying.
Tell that to my biatch ex
This song was written by Phillip Coleman about the closure of the OLDEST North American Goodyear Tire Plant in Union City Tn. Im from near there and my husband put in 26 years, 6 days a week for the most part. The closure was a surprise in some ways and a given in others. Little Union City has about 13,000 population, just a small Tn town and in 1969, Goodyear put the town on the map. My dad was a plumber and pipe fitter and helped build the plant. It’s 2023 and Union City is STILL here. Lots of the guys went to trade schools to become welders, Nurse’s, some got out of town or out of state jobs, but basically the township stuck it out together. Another tire manufacturer of humongous machinery tires took over the building, Titan Tire. We all got knocked down a bit, but Union City and the surrounding county GOT RIGHT BACK UP‼️Thank you guys for the song.
More true now than when this was released. Thanks Brandon.
Hello Kyle, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the virus??
Covid is the new market crash and this song is as relevant today as it ever has been.
Yeah covid 19 is a joke
Yep for sure
Shit I bought a house in June ... Estes are super fuckinnnn low
It’s crazy how this world crashed over power. They don’t care about us.
You have 2 realize is hyping up that bs I'm fine I been around people had it I lift stuff heavier than me everyday put that in between
I own two companies, even though they are still small. I have 7 employees and doing everything I can in 2023 to keep them employed. The worst thing is I don't want to lay someone off.
13 years ago and look how worst it’s gotten sense
And here we are 2023...
Hello how are you doing today??
2024 now
The cost of livins high........and goin up!!!!
I swear he took a picture of my life and wrote this song, I've told potential employers those exact words. Took me almost 30 yrs of working for other folks before I got my shit together and started my own lil welding shop. Just me, a couple thousand dollars worth of used tools and equipment, and an old second hand carport I walled in. Finally feel like I'm able to breathe...... My wife work 40 hrs a week and I'm able to work my own schedule, pick my kids up from school and be a father who has time for them. 13 more months and we own our lil farm, free and clear. Been a long road. I want to give them the world, but all I know I can do is give them each an acre of land, and hopefully live long enough to help em build a house. Maybe they won't have to struggle like the wife and I have... Just another Hillbilly trying to not suck at life🤔. Anyone else feel this way?
American Dream Hillbilly! 👏
okay this is also a comment section, drop me a mail or message me on Google hangouts at Ronniedunn201999@gmail.com and make sure you let me know I shared you this myself.💜💜
Doing the same thing as a machinist. Getting ready to head to Missouri and start over, build up our business and hopefully live long enough to see the fruits of my labor. With any luck, maybe a grandkid or two will be working with me.
Yes sir, same here just a hillbilly trying not to suck at life. may GOD bless
I'm not sure when Ronnie Dunn put this song out. But I will say here it is 2024.And this song sure does it home a lot
This song still brings me to tears, it’s just so true and it’s real. Not many real artists like that out here💯🇺🇸
M
Who ever thought we would pay for air and water
makes me cry ever time... ive been that guy standing there too many times...God. bless
“Yesterday my folks offered to help, but they’re barely getting by themselves”….. that’s me and my my little sister. If I have money it’s hers too.
Big shout out to all my hard working fellow Americans ! We’re in it together, keep your head up.

Oh honey I’m in Paducah, Kentucky. My dad was railroad and when I was little I watched this shit. Today it still happens. I’m good my parents are good but I cut hair when I can got the homeless when I can because it’s everywhere. I don’t know why this song came up but know I’m doing everything I can through Facebook to educate folks of what I know about this screwed up world. Much love and prayers to you. That video made me cry.
So true this is how life goes reality song. How are you Melissa ?
I really appreciate you’re support and effort that you have been putting into my life and career may you remain blessed and strong and healthy so I don’t know if you could send me a friend request so that we can know each other’s more better ❤️🌹 have a great day
This song hit hard 10 years ago when I got out of the army. Pa had 20 years in with Roadway Express and was near retirement. He just hit 30 years because of the crash and the reduction in his pension. Now with cost of fuel, food and electric... Here we are again...
I’m 40, served in the military, college degree and just got laid off. This song hits different now
Hello how are you doing..?
Songs Like this make me forget how much my back hurts when I hop off that fork lift..thanking god everyday when I roll outta bed at 2am that I'm lucky enough to be working ..amen
Sean Napier godspeed brother.

N so is yo mums
Been at job my 17yrs now work threw rain, cold weather, hot summer days ..This song keeps me strong for my family to provide for them..Thanks Ronnie Dunn for this song I play everyday on my way to work
Hello how are you doing today?
Im listing to this filling out job applications trying to fill some mighty big boots. My grandfather was the type of man to work 3 or 4 jobs to keep a roof over our families head ,food in our stomachs and to keep the lights on. He was the definition of a hard working American man. If i can be half the man he was i think ill do just fine.
Honestly if I won the lotto, every time I saw someone that I thought genuinely needed help. I would pay for whatever they were buying and give them a little extra. Sometimes I would leave money at a store or restaurant and pay it forward. I hope people with money don’t get to caught up in them selves and actually do the right thing. Don’t ever let anything change you, stay humble and remember where you came from.
I could not agree more.
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a ot fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💜
Brad. The only reason I have ever desired to be rich is to do exactly what you have said. The funniest thing is that when you look at those who have nothing they, many times, give more comparatively to their income.
@@richardmarble4707 send me your email now, I will like to Know more about my lovely fans💜
Been there, plant closed, lost my house. Starting over at 50 is hard.
Mark Flitton I'im 36 and starting over rn. Praying u get ur opportunity
Mark Flitton keep your head my friend. The plant manager that was at the tire plant came to my factory in lexington and we lost around 800 jobs. Praying for you.
Mark Flitton Took care of my mom and dad for 45 yrs. Both were disabled. Now I am alone. Use to be a journeyman pipefitter and made good money. Now I'm broke down from lifting bodies and done out of love, I never got paid. Now I'm 66 and disabled... Alone, I live on 750.00 a month. Lost my home had to sell my truck and lost everything I owned to reposession. Was sleeping in my car with nothing but the clothes on my back and no money in my pocket. I survived! Now I'm one of the poor, living on very little a month. Sometimes I run out of food at the end of the month but I've learned how to fast for Gods homeless and poor for that week. God is good to me. I have a roof over my head and a bed to call my own and a GM car that runs well. . Can't work but I can pray!!! He's met all my needs.
@@donnakeeley7924 I understand where you are coming from. I worked in hospitals and nursing homes which tore me up over the years. I've had several surgeries trying to fix myself and after so long not working nobody wants to hire me at age 58. My husband died on the job at the age of 50. It took a toll on me ,mentally, psychological and financial. Back in the day everyone wanted me to work for them but not anymore.
Man. For what it's worth, I am truly sorry to hear that. When I hear these things, I think of my parents and everything they've worked for. If this happened to them, my heart would break into a million pieces, but you better believe I would do anything and everything to get them back on their feet and living life again. I am so sorry. I can only hope that you have loved ones that will do anything for you. Because after that, life itself becomes so much better and enjoyable. Even if it's kids or siblings. Don't matter who. Call em up. It ain't worth a fight unless your fanily is by your side.
I am 59 I have been a carpenter all my life
For the last year I have worked somewhere that the only reality is on a screen
Wow what have we come to
I meet young people
Willing to work hard
But they don’t know how
Because our culture is so perverted from what true American reality has always been it’s not just about education, but experience
That is what has made America great
People who learn from experience
Who love and respect each other
Who know that it’s okay to have expectations towards each other
And money isn’t everything
And it’s way too important
A golden song full of lyrics that speaks a billion words. Truly a God given song.
The truth
if this song gives u goosebumps your a hard working american
Jillian Humphreys Amen brother
Jillian Humphreys amen
Jillian Humphreys amen
man, im barely holding em back right now..
Got goosebumps. Am European.
Titan tire company bought the Goodyear plant and is back in business in Union city Tn

joebob928 guy didnt say anything to u dont gotta be a dick its called being be respectful
Great news for the people of Union City..
11 years since its release and this song still resonates..
The Union City I grew up in was nothing like it is now. In the 50's and 60's there were a lot of jobs here. It's really sad how this town has fallen since GY left. 😢
@@beckygarrigan3700thank a ceo. They made that choice extra profit, was better than doing what's right.
I just went to work this morning and they had a sign on the front door saying it was bought out and we were out of a job so I bought a 5th and turned this song on to listen to while I apply to other jobs all I can do is weld and Ive been doing it for the past 6 years God Bless And Good Luck to anyone listaning in the same shoes as me hope you everyone does well in this world going crazy love yall
I was a teen when this came out, it hit hard then and still does.... Especially in the times we live in.
Opening lyrics give chills every time.
Thanks for supporting my youtube channel with good comments kindly contact me via email: ronniedunn740@gmail.com
As a high schooler from Union city who’s parents were greatly affected by the closing I really appreciate u making this song
Closed my machine shop after 44 years of absolute struggle and this song helps me cope in 2024
I started a new job. I’m very green and everyday seems so uncertain. I just want to do the best that i can. This job can lead to me to a brighter future I never had before. God please give me the strength to do what needs to be done and keep my family safe and secure.
Amen

I lost my dad on Thursday. 11-21-19..I travelled and worked with my dad for a construction company for years. Early on one of our bosses loved country and I heard this song come on riding with him and my dad once...it was the first country song I ever liked and I liked it because it reminded me of my dad. The hardest working, most intelligent and handy man I’ve ever known. My best friend and hero I will miss him forever. Cherish your dads people. Let them know. My dad was 53 and died a horrible death of cancer. The last year I’ve been by his bedside 24/7. In the beginning as a son and best friend wanting to be with my hero. In the end as those things but also his caregiver. Luckily I don’t have kids and was able to do this, and as hard as it was I’d do it a hundred thousand more times to have him again. Idk why I’m writing all this...I just don’t know what to do with myself
As a 25 year old I look back at how life has flown by and the people we lost . Never take a second for granted. Nothing is guaranteed !
You know this song resonates so powerful across generations my grandfather worked 16 to 18 hours a day from the time he was seven till he was over 70. It was just instilled in him when he retired he basically went crazy because he had to have something to do this song is for all the hard-working people who are battling And living pay to paycheck and this high interest high, inflation world we are in I pray for you all, and God bless those that have passed on before us
This song makes me cry so hard Everytime I listen. I am so blessed with the most hardworking Dad in the world. He never complains, he loves his family so much I don't even know how he makes it happen sometimes.
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a ot fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💜
bless ya heart babygirl...im sure it if his love for yalls family
I hope you tell him this. He'll appreciate it. You just made me look at myself. Thankyou
I'm a grown man and this song has me in tears. It's a lot of our lives. Never been too good at expressing some of this but this song nailed it
This song hit me hard when it came out. I’m from New England, but grew up working in a metal shop, we almost folded back then. We managed to survive, thanks to the boss taking zero pay for a few months. It was scary, humbling, and strengthening. This is the first time I’ve watched the video. February 10 is my birthday. Weird.
Edit: when the song came out it was gas is $5 and change at the pump . They changed the lyrics when the gas prices halved, so it didn’t sound unrealistic.
Here in Carolina furniture and textile mills began closing in the early 90s; the other shoe dropped with NAFTA in 1994. Entire towns were reduced to vacant buildings, empty windows and decay.. Main Street and formerly vibrant shops lay dormant, cracked windows and For Lease signs within the blast crater of Walmart. We have the 2nd highest loss of farmland in the country after Texas; many new generations are packing it in and heading to the cities. Never for a moment forget to stop and pray on all the blessings that you have.
AMEN
I get tears and goosebumps every time I hear this song.
Me too. It gets struck in my head and keeps me up. It's my motto recently.
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a ot fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💜
Same...
People who complain about working are not thankful for what they have.
Amen to that
Christopher Horney Amen Brother!
well said
I agree. I am lucky enough to have a stable job with great benefits and decent pay with tons of OT, but still people bitch and moan. Just be happy and thankful to have a job.
Depends on your job working at a steel plant is good money but worki8ng at a job that pays next to dirt and gives no respect isnt worth working your basically a slave ask any kfc night shift fry cook if they enjoy thier job. youll always hear no.
Here we were 12 years ago and now Oliver Anthony comes out with rich men north of Richmond. I felt this song then and feel it more than ever now. Keep your head up and keep moving forward.
I cried like a newborn when first I heard this song and that was 10 years ago. Today...I wept even harder given the circumstances of this nation.😢
It's really terrible to see what is happening to America now
Well get through it nothing in this world will ever keep us down along as we keep getting back uo and sometimes u gotta be there for someone n then they'll be there for u
That little girl In the video getting whatever she got off the shelf and her mom saying no we can't afford it hits home for me I've been there. That hurts more to me then any of it.

Woke up and hated my job. Listened to this and remembered how lucky I am to even have a good paying job and I am able to support my wife and kids. Respect

Hello how are you doing.?
My father served in the Navy, then went to Ga. Tech, where he met and married my mom. After one year he was recruded to work as an intern for Otis Elevator Company (probably heard of it) . They hired him full time within a month and he spent 44 years there. I can't even imagine what these people have gone through. Wow!!!!
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a ot fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💜💜💜
songs like this that make you sit back and take a look at what the world used to be.
This one really hit home, it gave me a moment of being grateful for what I have.
@Ronnie Dunn I am doing the best I can, I try to live everyday being the best person I can be with what I have to give.
This one hit hard in 2012 and I can imagine it’s hitting many hard now. I can say I’ve been blessed since 2013 with things turning around for me.
Prayers to all who are going threw tough times an rough sacrifices. I know God has a plan for everyone an I pray for those who need the prayer more than ever.. God bless
Al Perez broken hallo

It just doesn't get much better than Ronnie Dunn. I could listen to him everyday and it never get old. He sells you on the story within the song in everything he sings. He and only a handful of others stand alone in country music.
Thanks for your sincere compliment and love towards my music, Covid19 has shaped us all, we have you to be most thankful for💯💟🙏
I Love Written in Red.
Cost of Living has never gone up as fast as it had in the last 2 and a half years,
I was there a decade ago. Whirlpool shut down and I was fortunate to land another job. GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
So true .I was born in the depression..in 1940..then in the 70s..now same here..each time is hit harder....it breaks your heart...no classic Or middle ...it is poor or rich...don't think a middle area at all...we are poor and more poorer..took our jobs ..give us chicken feed..to stop working and the other a good Bye...who cares about our children and great grand and great great grand children
It’s with heartfelt gratitude I wanna say thank you for your kind words. I don’t usually do this often but your kind words attracted me. it’s been an honor entertaining you. Where are you steaming from sweetheart ?
Yes is funny how life goes things changed I love this song reality song. How are you Karolynsp?
Hello Beautiful how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
This song got me through the tough time in 2020 when I lost my 10 year career due to the rona. I was putting in resumes everywhere. I took a less paying job to stay financially afloat because I am a single mom. I kept my options open and recently found a new career.
Brooks & Dunn owned the 90's.
They carried country music on their backs for an entire decade.
@ashley1994
Kix & Ronnie dominated the country music genre thru the 90's. To even argue the point is blasphemy and shows how little you know about country music.
Stay safe.. peace. ☮☮
The song is perfect for the cost-of-living today in 2022.
This song hits so close to home right now during this difficult time. Covid-19 has took its toll on us all!
im from the uk and I love driving and listening to this
The government sure can put a hurt on us huh?
Not if you live in a rational thinking state that didnt close everything down
COVID 19 BULLSHIT!!!!!!!
governments reaction is what is still taking its toll. The people would have been fine otherwise. But I still feel ya
this song brings tears to my eyes because my family has been there when my my husband lost his trucking business. it gets to me everytime i hear the song because i know there are people out there barely getting by.

2023... the cost of livin is high and goin up...
This song always has and always will be so relatable to so many people.
Thanks for your sincere compliment and love towards my music, Covid19 has shaped us all, we have you to be most thankful for🎸🙏💟
This song speaks the truth man, I work my ass off for what I have and I will work till my body snaps in half or till I die, god bless the service members of our county and god bless the blue collar folks out there. "Americas backbone"
god bless
god bless, big things come to those who get out there and get it..
I like what you posted truer words haven't been said
I hope you are one of the few who gets to retire and enjoy it. A lot of us started working full-time in our teens and tore ourselves up. Working for the company and never being appreciated is the worse. My husband worked since he was 16 full-time and then also on his parents farm. I worked full-time since I was 13, which BTW was when I also had to leave the abuse and take care of myself. Many 12-16 hr shifts and sometimes if help was short I'd work 20 hrs. We both worked 6-7 days a week. I wound up broken down at the age of 45 and my husband died on the job at the age of 50. We have nothing to show for it but many happy memories of the time we spent together. Best wishes to you and your family
You're a great American Christien. God Bless you and your family.

One of the most underrated and taken for granted songs I have ever heard. Pay attention to the words and then realize where we are and where we are headed.
Man this song rings so true now a days
Hello how are you doing today..?
I just wish the song was longer...man, Dunn's got a voice. Just what country has been missing. Plus he tells stories in his song that the average man can relate to. Just a great artist!
This song reminds me of my neighbor rich . This man is a US army veteran and he gets the pain of not having enough money and it kills me to see him this way . He is such an amazing man this song always reminds me of him . A few months ago he wanted to go fishing but didn’t have enough money for his favorite lure so I went to thinking and I got him a whole new rod and reel with his favorite lures and you should have seen the smile on his face . Love you rich
One of the Most REALEST VIDEO'S you'll ever watch.. EXACTLY what it's like living in a small town.. Reminds me of my Hometown in Ohio..
This makes me think of my Daddy. He just passed and even before his passing, every time I listened to these lyrics, I think of my daddy. This is who my Daddy was, and who all the remaining generations will be. Hard working, honest, dependable and humble people. Amen!
Thought of..
It’s with heartfelt gratitude I wanna say thank you for your kind words. I don’t usually do this often but your kind words attracted me. it’s been an honor entertaining you. Where are you steaming from sweetheart ?
Nothin i cant drive, nothing i cant fix. Amen🙏
Jesse Fielding I deliver to the plant every once in a while.

As heartbreakingly relevant today in 2023 as it was 12 years ago.😢
$5 dollars and change at the pump...and going up. Fitting for today one of my favorite old songs.
been working 7 days a week, 10 hours a day for a while now. I have to deal with everyone complaining about having to work easter, and I'm just thinking, man it could be so much worse. I need to be thankfull for what I have, because there's just so many worse places I could be..
+Evan Wheeler
I feel you... honestly I wish I could make the people around me see how lucky they got it
+Evan Wheeler Im right there with you brother. 56 hrs a week for the last month. Its gonna be that for at least another 6 weeks. It has been much worse and this is alot better than worse. We can all sleep when we're dead but momma sure does like that extra money..lol
@Evan Wheeler
Take it while you can man. My job is going down the drain. the coal mines are shutting down and that means my job doesn't have any work. I machine brakes for all the mine equipment. This song is really starting to hit home.
i know your feeling man i travel for work welding an i work weekends holidays an average around 90 hours a week the only thing I can't complain about is the money
I hear ya. I work 2 weeks straight out software town and I'm home for 3 days then off on the road. it bugs me to hear people bitches about their 9 to 5 and home every night. count your blessings and be thankful for every day you wake the next morning
The story of my life ! Thank you so much for this song Ronnie. I'm in tears,...........
OK
It's not just the plant it's the whole nation and this hits harder to us blue collars today then it did back when this was released
This song reminds me of being 8 when gm was going bankrupt and my father was a master tech at a Chevy dealership he was worried we weren't going to make it but gm got bailed out that was the scariest months of my parents lives 2 car payments gas prices were high house mortgage and 2 kids living off of a combined 30 dollars an hour I pray I never go through that scare if they would've went under we would've went under fast

From one blue collar boy to another, keep your heads up boys, we are the backbone of this amazing country

I never comment on these, but this video got me. It gets me every time I watch it.. my grandfather worked in that plant for 33 years. He was the night super intendant. If you worked there from the 70s until 2002, chances are you knew him. I miss that man every day.
I live in a town of 400 and this hits harder every year… Hurts to see the elderly in town struggle that use to be small business owners and life was well… I miss those days…
Hello how are you doing today??
