I Can't Wait To Get Off Work (And See My Baby On Montgomery Avenue)
Lyricist:Tom Waits
Well I don't mind working 'Cause I used to be jerkin off Most of my time in the bars I've been a cabbie and a stock clerk And a soda fountain jock jerk And a manic mechanic on cars
It's nice work if you can get it Now who the hell said it I got money to spend on my gal But the work never stops And I'll be busting my chops Working for Joe and Sal
And I can't wait to get off work And see my baby She said she'd leave the porch lite on for me I'm disheveled I'm disdainful And I'm distracted and it's painful But this job sweeping up here is Is gainfully employing me tonight Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Tom do this and Tom do that Tom, don't do that Count the cash, clean the oven Dump the trash oh your loving Is a rare and a copasetic gift
And I'm a moonlight watch manic It's hard to be romantic Sweeping up over by the Cigarette machine Sweeping up over by the cigarette machine
I can't wait to get off work and see my baby Well she'll be waiting up with a magazine for me Clean the bathrooms, clean them good Oh your loving I wish you would Come down here and sweep Ame off my feet This broom'll have to be my baby If I hurry, I just might Get off before the dawns early light
