| Drive-By Truckers 21st Century USA The Unraveling ATO Records 2020 The parking lot beyond Oasis town
Down the street from the Mexican
Restaurant beyond the Auto Zone
And the place that's hawking payday loans
There's a K-Mart and a KFC
A fitness center and an Applebee's
Wells Fargo and a Taco John's
A good time bar to get your bad swerve on
In a town that's named for razor blades
All American but Chinese made
Folks workin' hard for shrinkin' pay
21st century USA
Out I-90 we might see you pass
We got coal and methane gas
We got jobs where the work is hard
And stores to max out your credit cards
In a town that ain't nowhere near
Just like every town everywhere
Folks workin' hard for shrinkin' pay
....and more

There he began making his way in the local music scene, continually writing songs about what he saw, felt and experienced in a place far different from home.

He’s now calling the song “Looking for a Leader 2020” and he’s released it onto streaming services; he’s also posted a standalone video on the Neil Young Archives.
“Yeah, we had Barack Obama,” Young sings, “and we really need him now/The man who stood behind him has to take his place somehow/America has a leader building walls around our house/He don’t know black lives matter and we got to vote him out.” Rolling Stone
