Walked all day till my feet were tired 
I was low, I just couldn't get hired 
So I sat in a grocery store 
"Help is light & I need some more" 
(I got a job) 
Sha na na na, sha na na na na 
(repeat above 2 lines 3 times) 
Well, I fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly (got a job) 
Sha na na na, sha na na na na 
You've been houndin' me to get a job 
Well I finally did & my boss is a slob 
He's on my back really all day long 
It seems like everything I do is wrong 
Well, I fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly (got a job) 
Sha na na na, sha na na na na 
(He says to me) 
"Get the boxes, take 'em to the basement 
Do the job right or I'll get a replacement 
Get the mop & clean the dirty floors 
& when you're finished wipe the windows & the doors" 
I fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly fin'lly (got a job) 
Sha na na na, sha na na na na 
Well, this man's about to drive me stone insane 
One of these days I'm gonna have a fit 
& though the boss keeps a-runnin' through my brain 
I'll never (never) (never) (never) (never never quit my brand new job) 
Workin' all day & workin' all night & workin' all day 
(repeat previous 2 verses) 
(repeat "Workin' all day & workin all night" & fade)
