Intro: [C]
[C]Kim said, "Jimmy, you better get yourself up
[F]Off of that raggedy couch
[G]I'm too pretty to work, and I'm tired of you
[F]Uglying up my [G]house"
[C]Jimmy said, "Baby, the guys at the top
Are doing [F]bad as the guys on the street"
[G]Kim said, "The guys at the top ain't about to be
[F]Paying alimony to m[G]e"
[CHORUS]
Get dow[C]ntown
See what you can [F]find
Put your [G]face in someone's that ain't [C]mine
Looks like the unemployment blues
Are [F]wearing out your house shoes
[G]Baby left when your boots came un[C]tied
[SOLO]
[C]Jimmy said, "Baby, ain't you seen the news?
[F]It's as far as the eyes can see
[G]Foreigners are coming in and doing our jobs
[F]For half of what they would've paid [G]me"
[C]"You mean half of what you would've made for
[F]Something you've never done
[G]Sounds like the bright side to all this, Jimmy
[F]Is your asking price went [G]up
[CHORUS]
Now get dow[C]ntown
See what you can [F]find
Put your [G]face in someone's that ain't [C]mine
Looks like the unemployment blues
Are [F]wearing out your house shoes
[G]Baby left when your boots came un[C]tied
[SOLO]
[C]Jimmy said, "Baby, if I work for your daddy
[F]It's worse than being his son"
[G]Kim didn't like what he said one bit
[F]And it didn't surprise him [G]none
[C]She said, "My daddy took good enough care of my mama,
[F]She hardly had to say a thing"
[G]Jimmy said, "That's part of what's wrong"
[F]Kim said, "Don't you say another [G]damn thing
[CHORUS]
Just get dow[C]ntown
See what you can [F]find
Put your [G]face in someone's that ain't [C]mine
Looks like the unemployment blues
Are [F]wearing out your house shoes
[G]Baby left when your boots came un[C]tied
