        Cmaj7      Ebmaj7          Cmaj7      Ebmaj7
Well, I don't mind working cause I used to be jerkin' off
Cmaj7      Ebmaj7      Cmaj7
most of my time in the bars
            Dm7          G7                Am            Am7/G
I've been a cabbie and a stock clerk and a soda fountain jock jerk
      D9       G6       G7
and a manic mechanic on cars
          Cmaj7           Ebmaj7        Cmaj7        Ebmaj7
It's nice work if you can get it - Now, who the hell said it
      Dm7 Em     F     G7    Am   Am7/G
I got mo- ney to spend on my gal
        Dm7        G7                C          A7
but the work never stops and I'll be busting my chops
Dm Em       F   G9  C   G7
working for Joe and Sal

            Cmaj7           Ebmaj7          Cmaj7   Ebmaj7
And I can't wait to get off work and see my baby
               Cmaj7        Ebmaj7          Cmaj7   Ebmaj7
she said she'd leave the porch light on for me
      Dm7              G7                Am                Am7/G
I'm disheveled, I'm disdainful and I'm distracted and it's painful
         D9           G6         A7          Dm  Em  F  G7  C    G7
but this job sweeping up here is gainfully employing me to- night

       Cmaj7        Ebmaj7     Cmaj7         Ebmaj7
Tom do this! Tom do that! Tom, don't do that
          Cmaj7           Ebmaj7         Cmaj7          Ebmaj7
count the cash, clean the oven, dump the trash, oh your lovin'
     Dm7  Em    F   G9    Am   Am7/G
is a rare and a copasetic gift
          Dm             G7           C            A7
and I'm a moonlight watchmanic - It's hard to be romantic
D9
Sweeping up over by the cigarette machine
G7
Sweeping up over by the cigarette machine

        Cmaj7           Ebmaj7          Cmaj7    Ebmaj7
I can't wait to get off work and see my baby
          Cmaj7             Ebmaj7       Cmaj7   Ebmaj7
she'll be waiting up with a magazine for me
          Dm7                  G7
clean the bathrooms, clean 'em good
      Am                 Am7/G        D9            C        Em     A7
Oh my lovin', I wish you would - Come down here and sweep me off my feet
     Dm         Em      F  G9 Am    Am7/G
This broom will have to be my baby
     Dm7           G7        Em    A7       Dm  Em  F  G7 C
If I hurry, I just might get off before the da- wns early light
