Was it based on a Billy Joel song title? Read the lyrics.
The movie take place in a car plant which is a factory and it run by japness men. Michael Keaton make a bet that the americans can do better then the japness. The men get into a fight and they all want to quit and the day of the 4th of July union picnic,and they get a note from the govern that the factory is closing down. Sounds like something from a Billy Joel song called Allen Town. Read the lyrics
Well we are living here in Allentown
And they're closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time
Filling out forms
standing in line
Well our fathers fought the second World War
Spent their weekends on the Jersy Shors
Met our mothers in the USO
Asked them to dance
Dance with them slow
And we're living here in AllenTown
But the restlessness was handed down
And its getting very hard to say
Well we're waiting here in AllenTown
For the Pennsylvania we never found
For the promises our teachers gave
If we worked hard
If we behaved
So the graduatons hang on the wall
But they never really helped us at all
No they never taught us what was real
Iron and coke
And chromium steel
And we're waiting here in AllenTown
But they're taken all the coal from the ground
And the union people crawled away
Every child has a pretty good shot
To get as least as far as their old man got
But something happened on the way to that place
They threw an American flag in our place
Well I'am living here in Allentown
And it's hard to keep a good man down
But I won't be getting very hard to stay
And we're living here in AllenTown
