Lyrics

There's Dustbowl blues and Midwest stomp
California surf & Southern Rock
There's New England new wave & Northwest Sub Pop
But I like shakin'....to the Rustbelt Bop...to the Rustbelt BOP!

Wig out! to that steel town tempo, bop the blues to that depressed deco
yeah you'd slit your wrists baby but what make's you stop?
The J.D's are jivin' to that Rustbelt bop yeah them J.D.'s are jivin' to the Rustbelt bop!

Monessen's dirty neon, Brownsville's cafes, Homestead's beach property, Pittsburgh, P.A.
I know the Sun Belt is just a jump, skip and a hop but I like shakin' to the Rustbelt Bop
Yeah I like a-shakin' to the Rustbelt Bop.

Let's SHAKE!

Well they're killin' those cats in Camden & Chicago has too much crime
In Detroit now you can't get 'em "one piece at a time"
The Corn belt is just a shuck, stroll and a walk
But I like dancin' to the Rustbelt Bop, yeah I like to dance to the Rustbelt Bop!

The trains broke down in Altoona, now Allentowns shut down
Cleveland's just rock and roll now, and Flint's a Great Lake ghost town
Wheeling's dog track, Johnstown's great flood, holiest Bethlehem and Smithton's great suds
the Bible-belt is just a jump, a skip and a hop
But I like a shakin' to the Rustbelt bop...To the Rustbelt BOP!
