Drive-By Truckers - Get Downtown lyrics
Kim said, "Jimmy, you better get yourself
 Op off of that raggedy couch
 I'm too pretty to work and I'm tired
 Of you uglying up my house"
 Jimmy said, "Baby, the guys at the top
 Are doing bad as the guys on the street"
 Kim said, "The guys at the top ain't about
 To be paying alimony to me"
 Get downtown, see what you can find
 Put your face in someone's that ain't mine
 Looks like the unemployment blues
 Are wearing out your house shoes
 Baby, left when your boots came untied
 Jimmy said, "Baby, ain't you seen the news
 It's as far as the eyes can see
 Foreigners are coming in and doing our jobs
 For half of what they would've paid me"
 You mean half of what you would've made
 For something you've never done
 Sounds like the bright side to all thisDrive-By Truckers - Get Downtown - http://motolyrics.com/drive-by-truckers/get-downtown-lyrics.html
 Jimmy is you're asking price went up
 Now get downtown, see what you can find
 Put your face in someone's that ain't mine
 Looks like the unemployment blues
 Are wearing out your house shoes
 Baby, left when your boots came untied
 Jimmy said, "Baby, if I work for you're daddy
 It's worse than being his son"
 Kim didn't like what he said one bit
 And it didn't surprise him none
 She said, "My daddy took good enough care of my mama
 She hardly had to say a thing"
 Jimmy said, "That's part of what's wrong"
 Kim said, "Don't you say another damn thing"
 Just get downtown, see what you can find
 Put your face in someone's that ain't mine
 Looks like the unemployment blues
 Are wearing out your house shoes
 Baby, left when your boots came untied
