Well, I'm hanging around the depot

Boys, trying to get a job

I'm so sick and tired of being laid off

No silver lining, no rainbow's end

Bills in my mailbox, that's all they ever send

All they ever send Well, I'm hanging around the corner

Boys, holding up the wall

Feeling kinda sloppy, waiting for a call

Running out of patience, running out of cool

Don't turn on the radio, I don't want to hear the news

Don't want to hear the news Well, you sure look good, baby, sure look neat

Sure make sense from your head to your feet

You don't want to know me now

But you're gonna change your mind

I'm going to Fat City, gonna do things in style Well, you sure look good, baby, sure look neat

Sure make sense from your head to your feet

Making all the ice melt when you walk down the street

Making all the ice melt when you walk down the street

You don't want to know me now

But you're gonna change your mind

I'm going to Fat City, gonna do things in style Well, my motor won't run

Man, I'm sure it's on the blink

Ain't had no gasoline since God knows when

I'm waiting for that woman, ain't she ever gonna show?

Don't keep me waiting, I got some place else to go

Some place else to go Well, I'm hanging 'round the depot

Boys, can't get a job

I'm so sick and tired of being laid off

No silver lining, no rainbow's end

Blues in my mailbox, that's all they ever send

All they ever send, all they ever send
