(Graham Russell)
|
Hit with the bug to run, you didn't go to college we can use you son
|
You look like the pride of your home town
|
But how can you hold out when your luck is down
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame.
|
Because I'm too tired to run around
|
Meeting people from the wrong side of town
|
Looking for a place to live, I've got no money nothing to give, listen
|
All you gotta do is look around for something that's new
|
find a job that's stimulating, that's easy and I'm still waiting
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I've stood in line and done my time
|
With nothin' to do all day
|
I've stood in line with all my friends
|
With nothin' to say all day,
|
I've stood in line and done my time
|
With nothin' to do all day
|
I've stood in line with all my friends
|
With nothin' to say all day, nothin' to say all day.
|
Got brains but got no drive
|
Money's cheap, the roads are wide
|
All the good positions go too fast
|
I need a job I know will last
|
I've got a job for you can you push that shovel can you swing that broom
|
Keep your head down and don't go slow
|
But don't forget to stop with the whistle.
|
|
[Chorus]
