Nanci Griffith - Lookin' For The Time (Workin’ Girl) lyrics

[Nanci Griffith - Lookin' For The Time Workin’ Girl lyrics]

Well, I work this corner from eleven to five
The hands get cold around midnight
You're askin' me if I've got the
Time well I don't know
But, you're wastin' mine tonight

Whoa you say you're looking for the time
Well, I'm a workin' girl you just wasted mine
If you ain't got money take
It down the avenue
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight

This sidewalk ice is cold as steel
I'm not Dorothy i can't click my heels
One of these days I'll move to LA
Where the nights stay warm and the
Boys come out to play

Whoa you say you're looking for the time
Well, I'm a workin' girl you just wasted mine
If you ain't got money take
It down the avenue
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight

Don't the snow light up the midnight sky
The snow plows roll and the limos fly
Don't cha know it's just another night

Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right
He lived so wrong he's doin' ninety-nine
Oh, I wish you had the money
And I had the time
'Cuz I'd just let those limos slide on by

Whoa you say you're looking for the time
Well, I'm a workin' girl you just wasted mine
If you ain't got money take
It down the avenue
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight

Whoa you say you're looking for the time
Well, I'm a workin' girl you just wasted mine
If you ain't got money take
It down the avenue
'cuz I ain't got time for you until daylight
