I don't know anyway, I guess soon somebody will release the lyrics. March ain't away anyway! We'll see which lyrics are the correct!

In the part about CVDVs? Could it be a reference to CBGB....the club that was in NYC? That's what I heard originally, still in the first listens though.
Edit: Sorry, missed the last version of the song.

For 30 odd years I was a newspaper man,
I made my living with a pen and a pad,
God I miss the smell of paper and ink on my hands,

Been back from the desert for a year or so,
I left more in the sand than you’ll ever know,
Another war was waitin’ for me when I got back home,
In the name of flags some gave their lives,
I’m still living, yeah Semper Fi,
Well that’s my story what else can I say,

Hey Hey!

I got a lot to give so can you see,
I’m still breathing and my heart still beats,
They took the car but they left the lease,
Does anybody want what’s left of me,
Boarding up the house they left the keys,
Forclosed on my city, rolled up these streets,
I ain’t checking out I still got my dreams,
Does anybody want what’s left of me?

Hey Hey!

They called us Dirty Harry, we're a punk rock band,
Why they sold CBGB's I don’t understand,
All that’s left are the t-shirts and they come from Japan,
I sold my drums to make ends meet,
The band broke up, we had to eat,
It’s the same old shit, it just happens more these days,

Hey Hey!

I got a lot to give so can you see,
I’m still breathing and my heart still beats,
They took the car but they left the lease,
Does anybody want what’s left of me,
Boarding up the house they left the keys,
Forclosed on my city, rolled up these streets,
But I ain’t checking out I still got my dream,
Does anybody want what’s left of me?

Hey Hey!

Well I’m a teacher I’m a farmer I’m a union man,
It’s getting hard to make a living in this heartland,
We ain't workin in our factories, all those jobs went overseas,

Does anybody want, does anybody want,
Does anybody want what’s left of me?
I got a lot to give so can you see,
I’m still breathing and my heart still beats,
They took the car but they left the lease,
Does anybody want what’s left of me?
Does anybody want my old friends,
To take a chance, or place a bet,
I ain’t checkin’ out I still got my dreams,
Does anybody want what’s left of me?

Hey Hey!

Does anybody want, Does anybody want,
Does anybody want what’s left of me?
Hey Hey! Hey Hey!
Does anybody want, does anybody want,
Does anybody want whats left of me?

I'm pretty sure of most of that except the 'my old friends' line. Anyhow, I've really enjoyed the songs from the new album, this has been the one stuck in my head the most. I just kinda think of it as today's version of Someday I'll be Saturday Night.

Nice work! I thought that line might be "Does anybody want to buy or rent".

This is easily my favorite song on the album. I like several, but this is #1 by a long way.

Same here! I love What About Now and That's What The Water made Me too, but this is my favorite. I was pretty sure I heard an f in that line as in friend instead of rent. It does sound like buy before that though, and as I'm pretty sure Jon isn't talking about human trafficking, I'm thinking I may have misheard that f. Lol

No. Just don't compare the two. Work for the Working Man is a shitty song. What's Left of Me is a good one.
