[Verse 1]
         A                          G
Well, my shoes, they come from Singapore
                        A
My flashlight's from Taiwan
   A                   G
My tablecloth's from Malaysia
                             A
My belt buckle's from the Amazon
               A                                G
You know, this shirt I wear comes from the Philippines
                                  A
And the car I drive is a Chevrolet
       A                            G
It was put together down in Argentina
         G                     A
By a guy makin' thirty cents a day
 
[Chorus]
           D              A
Well, it's sundown on the union
           D               A
And what's made in the U.S.A
D                 A
Sure was a good idea
     D                E       | A | % | % | % |
'Til greed got in the way
 
[Verse 2]
           A                       G
Well, this silk dress is from Hong Kong
                              A
And the pearls are from Japan
          A                       G
Well, the dog collar's from India
                              A
And the flower pot's from Pakistan
        A                              G
All the furniture, it says "Made in Brazil"
                              A
Where a woman, she slaved for sure
         A                                      G
Bringin' home thirty cents a day to a family of twelve
                                   A
You know, that's a lot of money to her
 
[Chorus]
           D              A
Well, it's sundown on the union
           D               A
And what's made in the U.S.A
D                 A
Sure was a good idea

'Til greed got in the way
 
[Verse 3]
          A                                           G
Well, you know, lots of people complainin' that there is no work
                         A
I say, "Why you say that for
     A                       G
When nothin' you got is U.S.-made?"
                                A
They don't make nothin' here no more
          A                       G
You know, capitalism is above the law
                                 A
It say, "It don't count 'less it sells."
        A                 G
When it costs too much to build it at home
                                    A
You just build it cheaper someplace else
 
[Chorus]
           D              A
Well, it's sundown on the union
           D               A
And what's made in the U.S.A
D                 A
Sure was a good idea

'Til greed got in the way
 
[Verse 4]
          A                     G
Well, the job that you used to have
                                         A
They gave it to somebody down in El Salvador
    A              G
The unions are big business, friend
                                 A
And they're goin' out like a dinosaur
     A                            G
They used to grow food in Kansas
                                         A
Now they want to grow it on the moon and eat it raw
      A                                 G
I can see the day coming when even your home garden
                        A
Is gonna be against the law
 
[Chorus]
           D              A
Well, it's sundown on the union
           D               A
And what's made in the U.S.A
D                 A
Sure was a good idea

'Til greed got in the way
 
[Verse 5]
  A                      G
Democracy don't rule the world
                              A
You'd better get that in your head
A                      G
This world is ruled by violence
                                     A
But I guess that's better left unsaid
A                     G
 From Broadway to the Milky Way
                            A
That's a lot of territory indeed
      A                      G
And a man's gonna do what he has to do
                                A
When he's got a hungry mouth to feed
 
[Chorus]
           D              A
Well, it's sundown on the union
           D               A
And what's made in the U.S.A
D                 A
Sure was a good idea
