  			INTRO : C   

C 
Kim said, "Jimmy, you better get yourself up 
F 
Off of that raggedy couch 
G 
I'm too pretty to work, and I'm tired of you 
F             G 
Uglying up my house" 
C 
Jimmy said, "Baby, the guys at the top 
          F 
Are doing bad as the guys on the street" 
G 
Kim said, "The guys at the top ain't about to be 
F                  G 
Paying alimony to me" 

 
       C 
Get downtown 
                 F 
See what you can find 
         G                            C 
Put your face in someone's that ain't mine 

Looks like the unemployment blues 
    F 
Are wearing out your house shoes 
G                                C 
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 coming in and doing 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 side to all this, Jimmy 
Is your asking price went up 
Now get downtown" 

CHORUS 

SOLO 

Jimmy said, "Baby, if I work for your daddy 
It's worse than being 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 you say another damn thing 
Just get downtown"
