Testo Workin’ at the Car Wash Blues - Jim Croce
Testo della canzone Workin’ at the Car Wash Blues (Jim Croce), tratta dall'album I Got a Name
Well, I had just got out from the county prison
Doin' 90 days for non-support
Tried to find me an executive position
But no matter how smooth I talked
They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was genius
The man said, "We got all that we can use"
Now I got them
Steadily depressin', low down mind-messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues
Well, I should be sittin' in an air-conditioned office in a swivel chair
Talkin' some trash to the secretary, sayin'
"Hey now, mama, come on over here"
Instead, I'm stuck here rubbin' these fenders with a rag
And walkin' home in soggy old shoes
With them steadily depressin', low down mind-messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues
You know a man of my ability
He should be smokin' on a big cigar
But 'til I get myself straight, I guess I'll just have to wait
In my rubber suit a-rubbin' these cars
Well, all I can do is just shake my head
You might not believe that it's true
For working at this end of Niagara Falls
Is an undiscovered Howard Hughes
So baby, don't 'spect to see me with no double Martini
In any highbrow society news, 'cause I got them
Steadily depressin', low down mind-messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues
So baby, don't 'spect to see me with no double Martini
In any highbrow society news, 'cause I got them
Steadily depressin', low down mind-messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues
Yeah, I got them
Steadily depressin', low down mind-messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues
