Intro: CCF
Kim said Jimmy you better get yourself up off that raggedy couch
GFG
I'm too pretty to work and I'm tired of you uglyin' up my house
CF
Jimmy said baby the guys at the top are doin' bad as the guys on the street
GFG
Kim said the guys at the top ain't about to be payin' alimony to me
Chorus:
CF
Go downtown, see what you can find
GC
Put your face into someone's that ain't mine
F
Looks like them unemployment blues are wearin' out your houseshoes
GC
Baby left when your boots came untied
SOLO
Jimmy said baby ain't you seen the news it's as far as the eyes can see
Foreigners are comin' in and doin' our jobs for half of what they would've paid me
You mean half of what you would've made for something you've never done
Sounds like the bright to all this Jimmy is your asking price went up
Chorus
Jimmy said baby if I worked for your daddy it's worse than bein' his son
Kim didn't like what he said one bit and it didn't surprise him none
She said my daddy took good enough care of my mama she hardly had to say a thing
Jimmy said that's part of what's wrong, Kim said don't say another damn thing
Chorus 2:
CF
Get downtown, see what you can find
GFG
Put your face into someone's that ain't mine
CF
Looks like them unemployment blues are wearin' out your house shoes
GC
Baby left when your boots came untied
