Looking for a Job Live by Todd Snider Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You can't talk to me like that, boss
I don't care who you are
If you don't want to have to hang your own drywall
Don't push me too far

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Boomtown work ain't hard to come by
Boomtown workers are
You might be the one running the show but
That doesn't mean you're in charge

[Chorus]
I was looking for a job when I found this one
Don't need the work like you need the work done
You look like you're under pressure
I was looking for a job when I met you

[Verse 2]
I'm sharin' a room with two guys over at the Motel 6, boss
I'm sending every dime I make here home to my ex-wife
Just did two years and twenty-eight days
With a little better aim I'd been in there for my life
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So you see, broke won't take much getting used to
Neither will a barbed-wire jailhouse wall
Watch what you say to someone with nothing
It's almost like having it all

[Chorus]
I was looking for a job when I found this one
Don't need the work like you need the work done
You look like you're under pressure
I was looking for a job when I met you

[Chorus]
I was looking for a job when I found this one
Don't need the work like you need the work done
You look like you're under pressure
I was looking for a job when I met you
I was looking for a job when I found this one
Don't need the work like you need the work done
You look like you're under pressure
I was looking for a job two weeks ago when I met you, boss
