Tom Waits - I Can't Wait To Get Off Work Lyrics

Send "I Can't Wait To Get Off Work" ringtone to your cell

(And See My Baby on Montgomery Avenue)

Well I don't mind working

Cause I used to be jerkin off

Most of my time in the bars

I been a cabbie and a stock clerk

And a soda fountain jock jerk

And a manic mechanic on cars

It's nice work if you can get it

Now who the hell said it

I got money to spend on my gal

But the work never stops

And I'll be busting my chops

Working for Joe and Sal.

And I can't wait to get off work

And see my baby

She said she'd leave the porch lite

On for me

I'm disheveled I'm disdainful

And I'm distracted and it's painful

But this job sweeping up here is

Is gainfully employing me tonight

Tom do this Tom do that

Tom, don't do that

Count the cash, clean the oven

Dump the trash oh your lovin

Is a rare and a copasetic gift

And I'm a moonlight watchmanic

It's hard to be romantic

(sweeping up over by the

Cigarette machine

Sweeping up over by the cigarette machine...)

I can't wait to get off work

And see my baby

She'll be waiting up with a magazine for me

Clean the bathrooms, clean um good

Oh your lovin I wish you would

Come down here and sweepameoffmyfeet

This broom'll have to be my baby

If I hurry, I just might

Get off before the dawns early light.
