Gimme A Job

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I need a job

I need it right now

Not just any old job

But I need it right now

It's gotta be a good one

It's gotta last

Longer than the other ones

In the past

I can work hard

And do my thing

Twenty-four seven

Anything

Yeah

Gimme a job

My love is unemployed

Gimme a job

And my heart ain't overjoyed

Gimme a job

I don't mean to be paranoid

So come on over baby

And gimme a job

Oh yeah

I don't care

If the pay's no good

Just gimme some shelter

And throw me some food

I can do the overtime

And I won't strike

Sign on the dotted line

Anything you like

Yeah

Gimme a job

My love is unemployed

Gimme a job

And my heart ain't overjoyed

Gimme a job

I don't mean to sound paranoid

So come on over baby

And gimme a job

[guitar solo]

I don't need no money

To make my dream come true

I don't need anything

All I want is you

Ain't that the truth!

Uh!

Gimme a job

My love is unemployed

Gimme a job

And my heart ain't overjoyed

Gimme a job

I don't mean to be paranoid

So come on over baby

Gimme a job

My love is on it's knees

Gimme a job

If you want it, then baby please

Gimme a job

Get me out of this deep, deep freeze

So come on over baby

And gimme a job
