[00:06.61] Well, I had just got out
[00:08.81] from the county prison
[00:11.08] Doin' ninety days for non-support
[00:14.71] Tried to find me an executive position
[00:18.41] But no matter how smooth I talked
[00:21.11] They wouldn't listen to the fact
[00:23.16] that I was a genius
[00:24.77] The man say, 'We got only we can use.'
[00:28.09] Now I got them steadily depressin'
[00:31.18] low down mind messin'
[00:33.06] Working at the car wash blues
[00:35.68] Well, I should be sittin' in
[00:38.54] an air conditioned office in a swivel chair
[00:42.74] Talkin' some trash to the secretary
[00:47.08] Sayin', 'Here, now mama,
[00:48.56] come on over here.'
[00:50.58] Instead, I'm stuck here rubbin'
[00:52.96] these fenders with a rag
[00:54.75] And walkin' home in soggy old shoes
[00:57.39] With them steadily depressin',
[01:00.05] low down mind messin'
[01:01.75] Workin' at the car wash blues
[01:04.86] You know a man of my ability
[01:09.02] He should be smokin' on a big cigar
[01:12.33] But till I get myself straight
[01:14.20] I guess I'll just have to wait
[01:16.10] In my rubber suit a-rubbin' these cars
[01:20.54] Well, all I can do is a shake my head
[01:24.95] You might not believe that it's true
[01:28.19] For workin' at this end on Niagara Falls
[01:31.86] Is an undiscovered Howard Hughes
[01:35.02] So baby, don't spect to see me
[01:37.50] With no double martini in
[01:39.57] my high-brow society news
[01:42.10] Cause I got them steadily depressin',
[01:45.09] low down mind messin'
[01:46.88] Workin' at the car wash blues
[02:04.12] So baby, don't spect to see me
[02:06.06] With no double martini in my high-brow
[02:08.49] society news
[02:10.22] Cause I got them steadily depressin',
[02:13.40] low down mind messin'
[02:15.41] Workin' at the car wash blues
[02:17.88] Yeah I got them steadily depressin',
[02:20.95] low down mind messin'
[02:22.54] Workin' at the car wash blues
[02:24.76]
