By: Drive-By Truckers
Intro: C
CKim said, "Jimmy, you better get yourself up
FOff of that raggedy couch
GI'm too pretty to work, and I'm tired of you
FUglying up my Ghouse"
CJimmy said, "Baby, the guys at the top
Are doing Fbad as the guys on the street"
GKim said, "The guys at the top ain't about to be
FPaying alimony to mGe"
Chorus:
Get dowCntown
See what you can Ffind
Put your Gface in someone's that ain't Cmine
Looks like the unemployment blues
Are Fwearing out your house shoes
GBaby left when your boots came unCtied
Solo
CJimmy said, "Baby, ain't you seen the news?
FIt's as far as the eyes can see
GForeigners are coming in and doing our jobs
FFor half of what they would've paid Gme"
C"You mean half of what you would've made for
FSomething you've never done
GSounds like the bright side to all this, Jimmy
FIs your asking price went Gup
Chorus:
Now get dowCntown
See what you can Ffind
Put your Gface in someone's that ain't Cmine
Looks like the unemployment blues
Are Fwearing out your house shoes
GBaby left when your boots came unCtied
Solo
CJimmy said, "Baby, if I work for your daddy
FIt's worse than being his son"
GKim didn't like what he said one bit
FAnd it didn't surprise him Gnone
CShe said, "My daddy took good enough care of my mama,
FShe hardly had to say a thing"
GJimmy said, "That's part of what's wrong"
FKim said, "Don't you say another Gdamn thing
Chorus:
Just get dowCntown
See what you can Ffind
Put your Gface in someone's that ain't Cmine
Looks like the unemployment blues
Are Fwearing out your house shoes
GBaby left when your boots came unCtied
