Swamp Dogg - I Need a Job lyrics
[Swamp Dogg - I Need a Job lyrics]
Ooh
I need a job
Worse than a dead man needs a coffin
Walkin' the street, ooh ooh, I'm starving
Went downtown yesterday to get me
Some of that free cheese
But they gave it all to away by
The time they got to me
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh i need a job
My stomach thinks my throat is cut
Hard times, hard times
Oh, it's kicking my butt
Ain't had no money since June of 2001
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
From paying 'em off, doin'
Without, losing your house, ain't no fun
Give me some work, I ain't too proud to beg
I don't care what I do
I gotta take some money home so
I can pull my family through
I need a job i need a job
Give me a job
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Rent takes every cent (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Food is so high
It would be cheaper if wе ate the morning
Call it what you want, use your еxpression
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh) now let's budget cut back
Or steal the program, it's all depression
I need a job (Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Ooh, I need a job
Uh, s'cuse me sir
Are y'all hiring here today?
Uh, what do I do? Well, I'm learning
I'm a singer, I'm a musician
Uh, what you mean, uh, you can't use me here?
I mean I can do things other than that
I have done things other than that
Before I became a singer and a musician
I mean, I need a job i gotta make some money
I mean you, you can at least
Give a person a chance, you know?
Uh uh wait, wait, wait a minute
Uh uh, mister look
You gotta get behind me now 'cause I'm
Standing up here talking to this
Man right now 'bout, uh, giving me a job
I mean, i mean you can't just be jumping
In front of me now
'Cause, I mean I'm desperate right now
I don't want no problems, you know?
'Cause, I mean, I'll do something
To you right out here, you know?
Whatever, you you you you you
You wrong, you wrong, you wrong
Uh, uh, yeah, okay, uh, uh about that job
Now you gon' give me a chance to-to-to
To just show you what I can do
I mean y'all ain't doing
Nothing but digging holes
And carrying bricks and planks and stuff
I mean I don't need no PhD for that
And I'm strong, you can see that
Give me a job
I need a job
Worse than a dead man needs a coffin
Walkin' the street, ooh ooh, I'm starving
Went downtown yesterday to get me
Some of that free cheese
But they gave it all to away by
