GRIND words/music: bill mallonee

1.
paint me a picture...one with blood and steel
paint it with the tears of the widows...weeping in the fields

Chorus:
Kid heart in the country
Kid heart in the city
livin' hard to earn that wage
dyin' a little more inside each day
Kid heart in the factory
heart behind the plow
and a heart on the assembly line
kid with a man's dream on his mind

2.
fill that picture up with the clear light of day
render t so holly i can't walk away

3.
And there ain't no gold at the end of any company's rainbow
and a single solitary dime that's worth dyin' for
