Jim Croce - Workin at the car wash blues

Well, I had j^Gust got out from the county prison Doin' ^D7ninety days for non-support Tried to find me an executive position But no matter how smooth I t^Galked They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was a genius The man say, &quo^C7t;We got all that we^A can use." Now I got them st^Geadily de^B7pressin', low^Em down m^Gind messin' ^C7workin' at the ^D7car wash ^Gblues

Well, ^GI should be sittin' in an air conditioned office In a swivel ^D7chair Talkin' some trash to the secretaries Sayin', "Here, now mam-ma, come on ^Gover here." Instead, I'm stuck here rubbin' these fenders with a rag And ^C7walkin' home in soggy old ^Ashoes With them st^Geadily de^B7pressin', low^Em down m^Gind messin' ^C7workin' at the ^D7car wash ^Gblues

You know a ^Cman of my ability he should be s^C7mokin' on a big ^Gcigar But till I ^Cget myself straight I guess I'll j^C7ust have to wait In my r^Aubber suit a-rubbin' these ^D7cars

Well, ^Gall I can do is a shake my head You m^D7ight not believe that it's true For workin' at this end of Niagara Falls Is an undiscovered Howard H^Gughes So baby, don't expect to see me With no double martini in any h^C7igh-brow society n^Aews 'Cause I got them st^Geadily de^B7pressin', low^Em down m^Gind messin' ^C7workin' at the ^D7car wash ^Gblues Yeah, I got them st^Geadily de^B7pressin', low^Em down m^Gind messin' ^C7workin' at the ^D7car wash ^Gblues
