| Song | I Can't Wait To Get Off Work |
| Artist | Tom Waits |
| Album | Live in Concert (1977) |
| 作词 : Waits | |
| (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. |
