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


SOLO


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

                C                      F
Looks like them unemployment blues are wearin' out your house shoes
G                                C
Baby left when your boots came untied
