Workin at The Car Wash Blues — текст песни (Jim Croce)

Well, I had just got out from the county prison

Doin ninety days for non-support

Tried to find me an executive position

But no matter how smooth I talked

They wouldnt listen to the fact that I was a genius

The man say, "we got all that we can use."

Now igot them steadily depressin, low down mind messin

Working at the car wash blues



Well, I should be sittin in an air conditioned office in a swivel chair

Talkin some trash to the secretaries

Sayin, "here, now mama, come on over here."

Instead, Im 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 till I get myself straight I guess Ill just have to wait

In my rubber suit a-rubbin these cars



Well, all I can do is a shake my head

You might not believe that its true

For workin at this end of niagara falls

Is an undiscovered howard hughes

So baby, dont expect to see me

With no double martini in any high-brow society news

Cause I got them steadily depressin, low down mind messin

Workin at the car wash blues

So baby, dont expect to see me

With no double martini in any high-brow 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
