Generate meaning
1
Well I don't mind working
2
'Cause I used to be jerkin off
3
Most of my time in the bars
4
I've been a cabbie and a stock clerk
5
And a soda fountain jock jerk
6
And a manic mechanic on cars
7
It's nice work if you can get it
8
Now who the hell said it
9
I got money to spend on my gal
10
But the work never stops
11
And I'll be busting my chops
12
Working for Joe and Sal
13
And I can't wait to get off work
14
And see my baby
15
She said she'd leave the porch lite on for me
16
I'm disheveled I'm disdainful
17
And I'm distracted and it's painful
18
But this job sweeping up here is
19
Is gainfully employing me tonight
20
Tom do this and Tom do that
21
Tom, don't do that
22
Count the cash, clean the oven
23
Dump the trash oh your loving
24
Is a rare and a copasetic gift
25
And I'm a moonlight watch manic
26
It's hard to be romantic
27
Sweeping up over by the
28
Cigarette machine
29
Sweeping up over by the cigarette machine
30
I can't wait to get off work and see my baby
31
Well she'll be waiting up with a magazine for me
32
Clean the bathrooms, clean them good
33
Oh your loving I wish you would
34
Come down here and sweep Ame off my feet
35
This broom'll have to be my baby
36
If I hurry, I just might
37
Get off before the dawns early light
