Текст Swamp Dogg — I Need 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 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
